Export document via API does not crop

Good morning,

Yesterday I was testing the https://api.lucid.co/documents endpoint to export a section of a board in PNG using crop and it worked fine.

This morning, when I tried again with the same parameters, I got this error “Document 07c0b5a3-732d-4595-b572-4a9034926f29 is too large and exceeds our image size limits”.

Removing items to make the document smaller worked, but the result is the whole document, not the cropped one.

Am I doing something wrong?

GET https://api.lucid.co/documents/07c0b5a3-732d-4595-b572-4a9034926f29?crop=10,10,10,10

Accept image/png

 

Note: the endpoint also ignores the page parameter. https://api.lucid.co/documents/07c0b5a3-732d-4595-b572-4a9034926f29?page=2&crop=20,20,20,20 returns the whole Page 1.

Hi DanielRivas,

Good catch. We’ve identified the bug and are working on fixing it; we made a recent infrastructure change that appears to have caused some small issues in certain places.

Hello Caden E,

Thanks for the explanation. Could you give a estimate on when will this be fixed? We need this feature for our internal systems.

 

thanks again!

In all likelihood, it’ll be by the end of the work week.

The fix has been released. Does it work for you now?
