Use cases for the Linkedin Post Image Generator API

The LinkedIn Post Image template is the shortest path to a working linkedin post image generator api from your stack. Send a small JSON payload, get back a tested PNG that fits your brand. No browser, no headless Chrome wrangling, no design tooling on your side.

Common reasons people reach for this template:

  • Long-form post hero images
  • Newsletter share cards
  • Webinar and event announcements

How it works

1

Send a JSON payload

POST to the template endpoint with the values you want rendered. Authenticate with your API key.

2

We render the image

The template is rendered server-side as a 1200x630 PNG (or whatever dimensions the template defines).

3

You get back a URL

The response includes a CDN URL for the PNG. Cache it, embed it, attach it to a tweet, anything you need.

Quick example

A single cURL call to render a LinkedIn Post Image as a PNG:

curl -X POST https://app.html2img.com/api/v1/templates/linkedin-post \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title":"Five lessons from scaling a B2B SaaS to $10M ARR","subtitle":"What I would have done differently in years one through three.","eyebrow":"GROWTH PLAYBOOK","author_name":"Priya Natarajan","author_role":"CEO, Northwind Labs","author_avatar_url":"https://i.pravatar.cc/160?img=47","background_color":"#FFFFFF","accent_color":"#0A66C2"}'
