Scrap image

Use scrapImage() to copy a publicly accessible image URL to Kakao's image server. Android, iOS, and web return the same image metadata. Initialize the Kakao SDK before calling this API; user login is not required.

import { scrapImage } from '@react-native-kakao/share';

const { infos } = await scrapImage({ imageUrl: 'https://example.com/image.png' });

const content = {
  imageUrl: infos.original.url,
  imageWidth: infos.original.width,
  imageHeight: infos.original.height,
  title: 'Image',
  link: { webUrl: 'https://example.com' },
};

secureResource defaults to true and returns an HTTPS image URL. Set it to false to request an HTTP URL. On web, the JavaScript SDK does not expose this setting, so the returned Kakao CDN URL is normalized to the requested scheme.

The result has this shape:

type KakaoImageUploadResult = {
  infos: {
    original: {
      url: string;
      contentType: string;
      length: number; // Bytes
      width: number; // Pixels
      height: number; // Pixels
    };
  };
};

Images must be accessible to Kakao's server and no larger than 5 MB. Uploaded images are stored for 100 days. This call prepares an image; it does not send a message.

See the official image scraping guide.
