Images in Hive

The Image Management API allows external systems to manage images in Hive.

To update an image, the image file must first be uploaded to the file repository. The returned file reference can then be used in image management API requests.

This upload is performed through a separate API endpoint (the Image Upload API) and is not part of the image management API. The endpoint accepts a multipart request, which is the standard format for uploading files and accompanying data in a single request.

Typical workflow

1. Upload image file using the image upload API

2. Receive file reference from the Image upload API

3. Create or update image record using the image management API
