Define an API function

Define an APIFunction, which takes an image and creates a stylized version:

Deploy the API

Using CloudDeploy, deploy the API function to the cloud with public permissions (everyone can use this API):

Get an image

Use WebImageSearch to find an image of a bird and resize it with ImageResize:

Create an HTTP request

Use HTTPRequest to define a multipart "POST" request for the Wolfram Cloud API server:

Submit the request

Here URLRead will execute the request and return the result as an HTTPResponse:

Import the result

Use ImportByteArray to import the bytes from the response as a PNG image:

• ImportByteArray imports the bytes and takes care of the transformation of those bytes in the format specification.
