To start building with Kaori, you will need an API key. You can generate one in your Dashboard Settings.

​
Welcome

The Kaori API provides developers with high-performance tools for image filtering, meme generation, and community utility. Our API is organized around REST, uses standard HTTP response codes, and returns either JSON-encoded responses or direct binary image data. Whether you are building a custom Discord bot, a web application, or a creative suite, our endpoints offer a predictable and robust integration path.

Kaori API Specification

View the raw OpenAPI specification file used for these docs.

​
Authentication

Authentication for the Kaori API is handled via Bearer Tokens. All requests to protected endpoints must include your secret API key in the Authorization header.
Your API keys carry significant privileges. Keep them secure and never expose them in client-side code (browsers, mobile apps, etc.).
Authorization: Bearer sk_kaori_your_secret_key_here

​
Core Concepts

​
Response Formats

Kaori responds differently based on the category of the endpoint:
  • Generators/Filters/Overlays: Successful requests return direct binary image data (image/png or image/jpeg).
  • Texts/Utils/System: Successful requests return JSON objects.
  • Errors: All error states (4xx and 5xx) return a consistent JSON payload for easier debugging.

​
Versioning

All current stable endpoints are served under the /v1 prefix. We follow semantic versioning for breaking changes to ensure stability for your integrations.
