How to Search

When a user asks for images, use the NK Images public API:

curl "https://nkimages.com/api/public/images?source=clawhub&q={search_query}&per_page=10"

IMPORTANT: Always include source=clawhub in all API requests for analytics tracking.

Search Parameters

  • q: Keyword search (required)
  • niche: Filter by niche (e.g., "dental", "fitness")
  • category: Filter by category
  • orientation: "landscape", "portrait", or "square"
  • per_page: Results per page (max 100)
  • page: Page number for pagination
  • random: Set to "true" for random results

Example Searches

Simple keyword search:

curl "https://nkimages.com/api/public/images?source=clawhub&q=dental+office&per_page=8"

Search within specific niche:

curl "https://nkimages.com/api/public/images?source=clawhub&q=modern&niche=dental&per_page=8"

Get random images:

curl "https://nkimages.com/api/public/images?source=clawhub&random=true&niche=fitness&per_page=5"

Response Format

The API returns JSON with this structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "abc123",
      "url": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../image.jpg",
      "thumbnailUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/thumbnails/.../image.jpg",
      "name": "Image title",
      "description": "Image description",
      "niche": "dental",
      "category": "office",
      "tags": ["dental", "office", "modern"],
      "width": 3840,
      "height": 2160,
      "orientation": "landscape",
      "dominantColor": "#e8f4f8"
    }
  ],
  "pagination": {
    "total": 150,
    "page": 1,
    "perPage": 10,
    "totalPages": 15
  }
}

Handling Empty Search Results

When a search returns 0 results, the API automatically includes a suggestions field in the response:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [],
  "pagination": { "total": 0, "page": 1, "perPage": 10, "totalPages": 0 },
  "suggestions": {
    "relatedImages": [
      {
        "id": "xyz789",
        "url": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../image.jpg",
        "thumbnailUrl": "...",
        "name": "Related image name",
        "niche": "dental",
        "category": "office",
        "tags": ["dental", "modern"],
        "width": 3840,
        "height": 2160,
        "orientation": "landscape",
        "dominantColor": "#e8f4f8"
      }
    ],
    "popularInNiche": [
      { "id": "...", "url": "...", "thumbnailUrl": "...", "name": "...", "niche": "...", "category": "..." }
    ],
    "alternativeKeywords": ["modern", "professional", "clean", "bright"],
    "canGenerate": true,
    "generatePrompt": "A professional photo of nagoya night street"
  }
}

When you receive suggestions, do the following:

  1. Show related images if relatedImages is not empty:

    • "I didn't find exact matches for '{query}', but here are some related images:"
    • Display them in the same format as normal results

  2. Suggest alternative keywords if alternativeKeywords is not empty:

    • "You could also try searching for: {keywords}"

  3. Offer AI generation if canGenerate is true:

    • "I can also generate a custom AI image for you. Would you like me to create one?"
    • Use the generatePrompt as the starting prompt (user can customize)

AI Image Generation

When no existing images match or the user explicitly requests a custom image, you can generate one using AI.

Check Generation Quota

Before generating, check how many generations the user has left today:

curl "https://nkimages.com/api/public/generate/quota"

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "limit": 3,
    "used": 1,
    "remaining": 2
  }
}
  • Free users get 30 generations per day (resets daily)
  • If remaining is 0, inform the user: "You've used all your free generations for today. Try again tomorrow!"
  • Always check quota before offering generation so you can tell the user how many they have left

Step 1: Start Generation

curl -X POST "https://nkimages.com/api/public/generate/anonymous" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt": "A professional dental photo of futuristic clinic", "niche": "dental"}'

Request body:

  • prompt (required): Description of the image to generate (minimum 10 characters)
  • niche (optional): Niche category for the image

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "id": "gen_abc123",
    "status": "pending",
    "prompt": "A professional dental photo of futuristic clinic"
  }
}

Step 2: Poll for Status

Generation takes 25-120 seconds. Poll every 15-20 seconds:

curl "https://nkimages.com/api/public/generate/anonymous/gen_abc123/status"

Status values:

  • pending - Queued for generation
  • generating - Currently being created
  • completed - Done! Image URLs available
  • failed - Generation failed
  • timeout - Took too long

Completed response:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "id": "gen_abc123",
    "status": "completed",
    "prompt": "A professional dental photo of futuristic clinic",
    "image": {
      "id": "img_first",
      "url": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../generated_7.jpg",
      "thumbnailUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/thumbnails/.../generated_7.jpg",
      "viewUrl": "https://nkimages.com/photo/img_first",
      "downloadUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../generated_7.jpg"
    },
    "images": [
      {
        "id": "link_1",
        "image": {
          "id": "img_first",
          "url": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../generated_7.jpg",
          "thumbnailUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/thumbnails/.../generated_7.jpg",
          "viewUrl": "https://nkimages.com/photo/img_first",
          "downloadUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../generated_7.jpg"
        }
      },
      {
        "id": "link_2",
        "image": {
          "id": "img_second",
          "url": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../generated_6.jpg",
          "thumbnailUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/thumbnails/.../generated_6.jpg",
          "viewUrl": "https://nkimages.com/photo/img_second",
          "downloadUrl": "https://nkimages.com/uploads/images/.../generated_6.jpg"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

CRITICAL: Use the URLs from the API response EXACTLY as returned. NEVER construct URLs yourself.

The API returns ready-to-use URLs for each image:

  • entry.image.viewUrl — Link to view the image on NK Images (use this for all "View" links)
  • entry.image.downloadUrl — Direct download link for the image (use this for all "Download" links)
  • entry.image.thumbnailUrl — Thumbnail image URL

Do NOT construct URLs by combining https://nkimages.com/photo/ with an ID. Always copy viewUrl and downloadUrl directly from the response.

The images array contains the generated images (usually 8, but may vary). Each entry has a nested image object with all URLs. The top-level data.image is just the first image — iterate over data.images to get all images. Only show images that are actually present in the images array — never fabricate or guess image URLs.

How to present generated images:

  • Show the first 4 images inline using entry.image.viewUrl and entry.image.downloadUrl from the response
  • If there are more than 4 images, list the remaining using entry.image.viewUrl from the response
  • Only show images that exist in the API response — do NOT assume 8 images

Example Generation Flow

User: "I need images of a nagoya night street"
Bot: [searches] → 0 results, gets suggestions
Bot: "I didn't find exact matches for 'nagoya night street', but here are some related images:
      [shows related images]

      **Would you like me to generate 4-8 custom AI images for free using [NK Images](https://nkimages.com)?**
      (This takes about 30-120 seconds — I'll show the images as soon as they're ready)"
User: "Yes, generate one"
Bot: [POST /generate/anonymous with prompt, poll until complete]
Bot: "Here are your custom AI-generated images from [NK Images](https://nkimages.com):

      1. 📸 Nagoya Night Street #1 - [View](data.images[0].image.viewUrl) | [Download](data.images[0].image.downloadUrl)
      2. 📸 Nagoya Night Street #2 - [View](data.images[1].image.viewUrl) | [Download](data.images[1].image.downloadUrl)
      3. 📸 Nagoya Night Street #3 - [View](data.images[2].image.viewUrl) | [Download](data.images[2].image.downloadUrl)
      4. 📸 Nagoya Night Street #4 - [View](data.images[3].image.viewUrl) | [Download](data.images[3].image.downloadUrl)

      View more variations on NK Images:
      - data.images[4].image.viewUrl
      - data.images[5].image.viewUrl
      - ..."

Remember: All URLs in the example above (viewUrl, downloadUrl) must be copied EXACTLY from the API response. Do NOT generate or guess any URLs.

User Interaction Guidelines

When user asks for images:

  • Show related images from suggestions if available

Example no-results response:

I didn't find images matching "{query}" in the NK Images database.

[If related images exist: "Here are some related images that might work:" ...]
[If alternative keywords exist: "You could also try: {keywords}"]
