Remarks

The image media type indicates the supported aspect ratio of the uploaded image.

We recommend the "GenericImage" with dimensions of 703 width x 368 height or above, in pixels.

All supported sub type values with corresponding dimension and aspect ratio restrictions are described below.

Sub Type Aspect Ratio Minimum Dimension
GenericImage Varies 40 width x 20 height, in pixels
Image16x9 16:9 640 width x 360 height, in pixels
Image15x10 1.5:1 300 width x 200 height, in pixels
Image4x3 4:3 100 width x 75 height, in pixels
Image1x1 1:1 128 width x 128 height, in pixels
Image191x100 1.91:1 703 width x 368 height, in pixels
Image4x1 4:1 512 width x 128 height, in pixels

Note

The maximum width and height in pixels are 2592 and 2048 independently, and you must still maintain one of the supported aspect ratios. For example, if the sub type is Image191x100 and the width is 2592, then the height must be 1357.

Images with animation are not supported. The following MIME types are supported.

  • GIF
  • JPEG
  • PNG

Tip

The PNG images are converted to JPEG. If you are not satisfied with the quality after conversion, we recommend that you provide JPEG directly.
