Overview

Webdam is a digital asset management (DAM) platform, and its API gives you programmatic access to manage brand assets such as images, logos, videos, and documents stored in your Webdam account. You authenticate via OAuth 2.0 and can upload, search, download, and organize assets through the API. It is most useful for teams automating creative asset workflows across marketing tools.

Beginner Tip

Webdam requires OAuth 2.0 authentication — start by reading the authentication guide in the docs to obtain an access token before making any other API calls.

Available Data

The kind of data this API exposes, based on its documentation. We could not call the endpoint to confirm the exact field names.

image URLs in multiple sizes
photographer credit
image dimensions
download link
color data
Use case: Integrate images data into web and mobile applications

Example Response

Illustrative shape only — we were not able to call this endpoint (it requires credentials or exposes no public sample URL), so the fields below show the kind of data this API returns rather than a recorded response.

Implementation Example

Calls a real endpoint of this API. Replace any placeholder credentials with your own key.

Request 
const url = "https://apiv2.webdamdb.com/folders";
// Replace headers or query params with the values required by this API.
const response = await fetch(url, {
  headers: {
  "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
  }
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Generated guidance based on this API's documentation, not observed by us. Treat it as a starting point and check against the provider's own error reference.

HTTP 401 Unauthorized The OAuth 2.0 access token is missing, expired, or malformed.
✓ Re-authenticate using the OAuth 2.0 password grant or authorization code flow and refresh the token before it expires.
HTTP 403 Forbidden on asset download Your Webdam user account does not have permission to access or download the requested asset.
✓ Contact your Webdam administrator to grant the appropriate role permissions to your account.
HTTP 404 Not Found on folder or asset The asset or folder ID in the URL does not exist or has been deleted.
✓ Use the /folders or /assets/search endpoints to retrieve valid IDs before making detail requests.

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
