By default an image sent with an API key is processed in memory and not stored; only the SHA-256 hash of the file, the verdict and the scores are kept.

​
Keeping images

To keep images, either:
  • turn on Store images for the key in your dashboard, or
  • send store=true with a request:
    • as a query parameter: POST /v1/check?store=true
    • as a store form field with multipart uploads
    • as "store": true in a JSON body
store=false skips storage for one request even when the key’s switch is on. It works the same on /v1/check/batch, for every image in the call.

​
What happens to stored images

Stored images are encrypted and kept for your plan’s 30-day history, then deleted. You can see and remove them in your dashboard history. They aren’t shown on the check’s result page unless you choose to show them there.
