Starting September 1st, the Eyeson API's layers endpoint will no longer support the insert parameter. While file and url parameters will continue to work unchanged, the legacy insert option is being officially removed. Though it's been omitted from the documentation for a while, this formal announcement aims to help any long-term users relying on it to transition smoothly.

The API layers endpoint now supports SVG images. This comes with great advantages for developers.

The power of SVG​

SVG is an XML-based vector image format, where XML is human-readable text.

Define drawing objects and use it with the Eyeson API. The actual image is created on our server, so the whole process of creating, sending and drawing the overlay is way faster than before.

In other words:

• Significantly smaller file sizes
• Text-based format that can be edited with code editors
• Original quality in contrast to compression of PNG, WebP, etc.

Define your overlay and background layer with dynamic content and let the library create the image for you on-the-fly.
