How to create a participant with a profile photo

Use this guide when you want to register a new participant and include their profile photo in the same request, using a publicly accessible image URL.

Prerequisites

Your API key
The event_id of the target event
A publicly accessible URL pointing to the participant's photo

Request

Bash

curl -X POST "https://your-event-domain.com/api/v2/account/set" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your_api_key_here" \
  -F "event_id=7" \
  -F "first_name=John" \
  -F "last_name=Doe" \
  -F "email=john.doe@example.com" \
  -F "photo=https://example.com/photos/john-doe.jpg"

Response

JSON

{
  "code": 200,
  "errors": null,
  "data": {
    "id": 12350,
    "email": "john.doe@example.com",
    "status": "created",
    "external_id": null,
    "errors": []
  },
  "response_id": "1700000000.12350"
}

Accepted image formats

The platform accepts the following image formats only:

image/png
image/jpeg

If an unsupported format is provided, the photo will not be saved and a non-fatal error will appear in the errors array. The account will still be created successfully.

Notes

The image URL must be publicly accessible at the time of the request — the platform fetches the image from the URL
If the URL is unreachable or returns an unsupported format, the photo is skipped without failing the entire request
Always check the errors array in the response to confirm the photo was processed correctly
