YourImageShare API

smithery badge yourimageshare MCP server

Free JSON/REST API for YourImageShare - a free image and video hosting platform for anonymous and registered users. Use the API to upload, list, and delete files programmatically instead of going through the browser uploader.

Get an API key

Sign in to your account and open the API tab. Your key is shown there, along with a Regenerate button.

That tab also has a separate, scoped Upload-only key - use that one instead anywhere the key ends up in something other people can see (a forum plugin's page-source snippet, a public config file), since it can only upload and not list/delete. See Upload-only key in the full reference. The forum plugins below already use it.

Quick example

curl "https://yourimageshare.com/api" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -F "uploads=@/path/to/photo.jpg"

{
  "type": "success",
  "msg": "success",
  "data": {
    "id": "aB3xY9qRz1",
    "type": "image",
    "path": "https://i.yourimageshare.com/aB3xY9qRz1.webp",
    "src": "https://yourimageshare.com/ib/aB3xY9qRz1.webp",
    "direct": "https://yourimageshare.com/ib/aB3xY9qRz1"
  }
}

Full request/response shapes, rate limits, error codes, and code samples in curl, JavaScript, Python, PHP, and Go are in API.md.

Client libraries

Ten official SDKs (across nine languages/runtimes, JS/TS counted once with two registries), so you don't have to hand-roll the HTTP calls, plus a Discord bot built on top of one of them:

  • JavaScript/TypeScript: yourimageshare on npm - npm install yourimageshare. Also on JSR as @yourimageshare/yourimageshare - npx jsr add @yourimageshare/yourimageshare, same source, published as TypeScript directly. Zero dependencies, works in Node.js and browsers. Source: /js.
  • Python: yourimageshare on PyPI - pip install yourimageshare. One dependency (requests), Python 3.8+. Source: /python.
  • PHP: yourimageshare/yourimageshare-php on Packagist - composer require yourimageshare/yourimageshare-php. Zero Composer dependencies (uses PHP's own curl extension), PHP 7.4+. Own repo (MediaShareORG/yourimageshare-php) - Packagist requires a root-level composer.json, not a monorepo subdirectory.
  • Go: github.com/MediaShareORG/yourimageshare/go - go get github.com/MediaShareORG/yourimageshare/go. Zero dependencies (standard library only), Go 1.18+. Source: /go.
  • Rust: yourimageshare on crates.io - cargo add yourimageshare. Two dependencies (ureq, blocking/no async runtime, plus serde), Rust 1.70+. Source: /rust.
  • Ruby: yourimageshare on RubyGems - gem install yourimageshare. Zero gem dependencies (stdlib Net::HTTP + json), Ruby 2.7+. Source: /ruby.
  • .NET: YourImageShare on NuGet (pending first publish) - dotnet add package YourImageShare. One dependency (Microsoft's own System.Text.Json), targets netstandard2.0 (.NET Framework and modern .NET both). Source: /dotnet.
  • Dart/Flutter: yourimageshare on pub.dev (pending first publish) - dart pub add yourimageshare. One dependency (http, the Dart team's own package), Dart 2.17+. Source: /dart.
  • Elixir: yourimageshare on Hex.pm - add {:yourimageshare, "~> 1.0"} to mix.exs. One dependency (Req), Elixir 1.14+. Returns {:ok, result} | {:error, reason} tagged tuples (the direct equivalent of Go's return style) plus bang variants that raise. Docs: hexdocs.pm/yourimageshare. Source: /elixir.
  • MCP server (for AI coding agents - Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients): yourimageshare-mcp on npm - npx yourimageshare-mcp, no install step. Also listed on Smithery and Glama. Source: /mcp.
  • Discord bot: /upload file:<attachment> slash command, built on the JS SDK. Self-hosted - run your own instance with your own bot token, same model as the ShareX/Flameshot integrations below, not a public bot we run. Source: /discord.

All SDKs wrap the same three endpoints below (upload/list/delete) with typed results and a proper error type on API failures instead of raw HTTP handling, and are MIT licensed. .NET and Dart are built and verified against the live API but not yet published - each package name/ID is confirmed available and reserved by this doc. .NET needs a NuGet API key (Microsoft account); Dart needs an interactive dart pub login (Google OAuth, browser-based - can't be scripted).

No official library for your language? The full HTTP reference covers everything needed to call the API directly.

Expiring uploads

Pass expires_in (seconds, 60 to 2,592,000) on upload to auto-delete a file later - the storage object is removed and the page starts 410ing within about 5 minutes of expiry. Omit it for a normal, permanent upload.

curl "https://yourimageshare.com/api" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -F "uploads=@/path/to/photo.jpg" \
  -F "expires_in=3600"

Screenshot tools

Ready-made configs/scripts to upload straight from a screenshot tool, no browser tab required:

Setup instructions are in the comments at the top of each file, and on the live docs page.

Forum plugins

A real "Upload Image" button next to your forum's post editor - each one uploads through /api and inserts BBCode at your cursor. All six are configured with your Upload-only key (not your main API key), since the key renders in every visitor's page source and the upload-only key can only upload on your behalf - see Upload-only key.

All six share one underlying widget, forum-upload.js (also served live from yourimageshare.com/assets/js/forum-upload.js), so fixes/improvements apply everywhere at once. Full setup instructions and downloads are also on the live docs page.

WordPress plugin

yourimageshare-media-offload/ (download) - offloads your Media Library to YourImageShare instead of local disk: new image/video uploads go through /api automatically, the local file (and every generated thumbnail size) is deleted once the remote copy is confirmed, and every WordPress attachment URL (block editor, featured images, galleries, REST API) resolves to the YourImageShare-hosted file - no shortcode, no workflow change. Built for the common shared-hosting problem of a Media Library outgrowing a small storage quota. Uses the same Upload-only key pattern as the forum plugins above; an optional full API key enables deleting the remote copy when an attachment is deleted in WordPress (or when restoring a file to local storage and choosing to remove the remote copy).

v1.1.0 adds: bulk-offload for an existing Media Library (rate-limit-aware batches, not just new uploads going forward), a one-click Restore to local action so offloading isn't a one-way door, a Media Library status column + row actions, and a dismissible admin notice for offload failures. Dedicated top-level admin menu, icon is the site's own Pacifico "Y" wordmark extracted as a real vector path from the font file. Audited against the WordPress.org detailed plugin guidelines (external-service disclosure in both the readme and the settings page, nonces + capability checks on every AJAX action, no bundled jQuery/CDN assets, conservative uninstall.php). Not yet published to the WordPress.org Plugin Directory - the code is complete and installable manually (zip the folder, upload via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin) in the meantime.

Rate limits

Each API key gets 20 requests/minute and 500 requests/day by default, plus a 2,000/day ceiling per IP address as a backstop. Every response includes X-RateLimit-Limit/X-RateLimit-Remaining headers; a 429 includes Retry-After.
