How to Fetch and Optimize Accent Images in Presentations Using the API

·Jan 29, 2026 09:51 AM·

Hi everyone - i'm also looking to optimise accent images in presentations - is there any way to fetch / upload accent images via the API? I'm thinking to do something like re-process / crunch or optimise the acccent images we use for faster presentation generation - does anyone know how gamma deals with that?

Dan P. tell me more about the images you're trying to use. Are they the same images again and again or do they vary? If the former, you can consider creating a template and using our Create from Template API to reuse the same images and supplement more images where needed.

Its accent images on a theme, the question being should I pre-compress them or upload in specific sizes for 16:9 presentations to get the fastest results. Currently we just upload any ol format/size/definition that we like but i'm assuming that compressing them and uploading in specific dimensions would help with both quality and speed when generating?

Highly depends on the number and resolution of images. Your best bet would be to try this out, it's hard for us to tell.

I guess that is what i'm asking, how many images and what dimensions should I add in order to give the API the best success and speed via the API
