Sample Code

Photoshop

The code snippets are using one of our sample psd files. Please feel free to download and use it for testing. Just remember you will need to have this file stored in one of the accepted external storages. For more information on storage please refer to the File Storage.

For each of these examples to run. You first have to get your Bearer token and apikey. For ease of use, you can export your token and api key before running the examples.

Executing an actionJSON

The /actionJSON endpoint can take an input file and apply any Photoshop Action file on it and edit the steps within the original action file. This gives you a lot of flexibility to create dynamic changes to an otherwise static Action file. In this example we are going to use a familiar asset and action file and we are going to modify the payload to return an output that executes all of the steps of the original action with one modification, instead of color we are going to use actionJSON to return a black and white image. This action file contains over 70 steps so we wont show the entire JSON payload but will share the part we modified to achieve the output.

Executing an actionJSON with multiple inputs

With /actionJSON endpoint you can use multiple images to do compositing on the actionJSON.

In order to supply multiple images and have it specified in the actionJSON, you need to create a Placeholder Value in your actionJSON. The placeholder value must be "ACTION_JSON_OPTIONS_ADDITIONAL_IMAGES_X" where "X" is the index of the "additionalImages" array.

For example, say you have an actionJSON that requires 2 additional Images.

ACTION_JSON_OPTIONS_ADDITIONAL_IMAGES_0 == options.additionalImages[0] ACTION_JSON_OPTIONS_ADDITIONAL_IMAGES_1 == options.additionalImages[1]

A call to this API initiates an asynchronous job and returns a response containing an href. Use the value in the href to poll for the status of the job. This is illustrated in Example 12 and Example 14

Retrieve a PSD's JSON manifest

The /documentManifest api can take one input PSD's to generate a JSON manifest file. The JSON manifest is the tree representation of all of the layer objects contained in the PSD document.

Using Example.psd, with the use case of a document stored in your external storage (ie. azure, aws, dropbox), a typical curl call might look like this:

Copied to your clipboard
curl -X POST \
  https://image.adobe.io/pie/psdService/documentManifest \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"  \
  -H "x-api-key: $apiKey" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "href":"<YOUR_PRESIGNED_URL>",
      "storage":"<storage>"
    }
  ]
}'

A call to this API initiates an asynchronous job and returns a response containing an href. Use the value in the href to poll for the status of the job and the same response will also contain the JSON manifest. This is illustrated in Example 12 and Example 14

Fetch the status of an API

Each of our Photoshop API endpoints, when invoked, initiates an asynchronous job and returns a response body that contains the href to poll for status of the job.

Copied to your clipboard
{
    "_links": {
        "self": {
            "href": "https://image.adobe.io/pie/psdService/status/de2415fb-82c6-47fc-b102-04ad651c5ed4"
        }
    }
}

Using the job id returned from the response (ass above) of a successfully submitted API call, you can poll on the corresponding value in the href field, to get the status of the job.

Copied to your clipboard
curl -X GET \
  https://image.adobe.io/pie/psdService/status/de2415fb-82c6-47fc-b102-04ad651c5ed4 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"  \
  -H "x-api-key: $apiKey" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Poll for job status for documentManifest

Once your job completes successfully (no errors/failures reported), the status response will contain your document's JSON manifest along with other metadata about the input document. The JSON Manifest is further described in the api docs

Applying Depth Blur Neural Filter

The depthBlur endpoint can take an input file and apply the depth blur neural filter.

This example shows how you can apply depth blur with the appropriate parameters.

Copied to your clipboard
curl -X POST \
  https://image.adobe.io/pie/psdService/depthBlur \

    "blurStrength": 30,
    "focalSelector": {
        "x": 0.22,
        "y": 0.33
    }
  },
  "outputs": [
    {
      "storage": "<storage>",
      "type": "image/jpeg",
      "href": "<SIGNED_POST_URL>"
    }
  ]
}'

First, be sure to follow the instructions in the Getting Started guide to get your token.

Remove Background

The /cutout api takes a single input image to generate your mask or remove background from. Using Example.jpg, a typical curl call might look like this:

Copied to your clipboard
curl -X POST \
  https://image.adobe.io/sensei/cutout \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"  \
  -H "x-api-key: $apiKey" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
   "input":{
      "storage":"<storage>",
      "href":"<SIGNED_GET_URL>"
   },
   "output":{
      "storage":"<storage>",
      "href":"<SIGNED_POST_URL>",
      "mask":{
         "format":"soft"
      }
   }
}'

This initiates an asynchronous job and returns a response containing the href to poll for job status and the JSON manifest.

Copied to your clipboard
{
    "_links": {
        "self": {
            "href": "https://image.adobe.io/sensei/status/e3a13d81-a462-4b71-9964-28b2ef34aca7"
        }
    }
}

Using the job id returned from the previous call you can poll on the returned /status href to get the job status

Copied to your clipboard
curl -X GET \
  https://image.adobe.io/sensei/status/e3a13d81-a462-4b71-9964-28b2ef34aca7 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"  \
  -H "x-api-key: $apiKey" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Once the job is complete your successful /status response will look similar to the response below; The output will have been placed in your requested location. In the event of failure the errors will be shown instead

Copied to your clipboard
{
    "jobID": "e3a13d81-a462-4b71-9964-28b2ef34aca7",

    "input": "<SIGNED_GET_URL>",
    "_links": {
        "self": {
            "href": "https://image.adobe.io/sensei/status/e3a13d81-a462-4b71-9964-28b2ef34aca7"
        }
    },
    "output": {
        "storage": "<storage>",
        "href": "<SIGNED_POST_URL>",
        "mask": {
            "format": "soft"
        }
    }
}

Generate image mask

The workflow is exactly the same as creating Remove Background except you use the /mask endpoint instead of /cutout.

Customized Workflow

Generate Remove Background result as Photoshop path

This workflow is ONLY for users who'd like to generate remove background result as Photoshop path instead of regular mask or remove background in above example 1 and example 2. You will need to chain API calls to Remove Background service and Photoshop Service to achieve this goal.

Sample Input/Output

Sample input from here. Sample output from here (Note: you will need to open result in Photoshop Desktop application so that you will see the path in path panel)

Instructions

  1. Download the make-file.atn file from here (this file will be used in the Photoshop action API call)
  2. Make the first API call to Remove Background service to generate intermediate result as RGBA remove background
  3. Make the second API call to Photoshop action service to use above intermediate result as well as the make-file.atn file to generate final JPEG format result with desired PS path embedded
  4. Open the final result with Photoshop Desktop app to check generated path in path panel

Sample Code

You can download the sample end-to-end bash script here and then follow the comments to try it out this customized workflow.

Triggering an Event from the API's

In order to start receiving the events in your Webhook Application, the additional thing that needs to be done is to pass in your IMS ORG ID in a header: x-gw-ims-org-id: <YOUR_IMS_ORG_ID>, when you make an API call to initiate a job. Please have a look at the example below that demonstrates the usage of the new header and a sample event received for that job.

Example 1: Retrieving a PSD manifest from the Photoshop API

Step 1: Initiate a job to retrieve a PSD's JSON manifest

The /documentManifest api can take one or more input PSD's to generate JSON manifest files from. The JSON manifest is the tree representation of all of the layer objects contained in the PSD document. Using Example.psd, with the use case of a document stored in your external storage, a typical curl call might look like this:

Copied to your clipboard
curl -X POST \
  https://image.adobe.io/pie/psdService/documentManifest \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"  \
  -H "x-api-key: $apiKey" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H 'x-gw-ims-org-id: <YOUR_IMS_ORG_ID>' \
  -d '{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "href":"<SIGNED_GET_URL>",
      "storage":"<storage>"
    }
  ]
}'

This initiates an asynchronous job and returns a response containing the href to poll for job status and the JSON manifest.

Copied to your clipboard
{
    "_links": {
        "self": {
            "href": "https://image.adobe.io/pie/psdService/status/63c6e812-6cb8-43de-8a60-3681a9ec6feb"
        }
    }
}

Step 2: Receive the Job's status on the Webhook application when the job is complete

The value in the key body inside the event JSON contains the result of the job. Here is a sample event received from the job initiated above:
