POST /v1/ai/images/credentials/{credentialId}/test
Check an image key now, by generating a real image with it.
Authentication
Send an API key as a bearer token. The key must carry the billing.manage permission; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.
This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.
Try it
Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.
curl -X POST https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/ai/images/credentials/{credentialId}/test \
-H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…"Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console
Details
The customer's own "check it now". Same mechanism as the scheduled sweep, so the answer on screen and the answer in the sweep can never disagree. ⛔ A `POST` and not a `GET` because it **costs money**: it draws an image on the customer's provider account. A GET that spends would be retried by every browser, proxy and prefetcher on the path. Requires `billing.manage`.

last_check_error | string | No | The provider's own words when the last check failed. Empty otherwise. |
