For Agents
Programmatically create a new image, retrieve an image by id. Covers 15 operations with bearer authentication.
Use for: I need to a new image, I want to an image by id, Search for an image by id, Find all a new video
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for media and content only.
API for generating images, videos, and PDFs from templates with dynamic content. The API exposes 15 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Placid API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Placid API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with Placid API.
Create a new image
Retrieve an image by ID
Delete an image by ID
Use Cases
Patterns agents use Placid API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Media and Content Operations
Use the Placid API to perform media operations programmatically. The API provides 15 endpoints covering core functionality including create a new image, retrieve an image by id, delete an image by id.
Call POST /images to create a new image
Automated Images Management
Automate images operations by combining multiple Placid API endpoints. Agents can retrieve an image by id and then delete an image by id in a single workflow.
Call GET /images/{id} to retrieve an image by id, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Placid API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'create a new image', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Placid API bearer credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create a new image') and Jentic returns the matching Placid API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Placid API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs
Specific to using Placid API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Placid API use?
The Placid API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I create a new image with the Placid API?
Yes. Use the POST /images endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Placid API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I create a new image through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'create a new image'. Jentic returns the matching Placid API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Placid API have?
The Placid API exposes 15 endpoints covering images, pdfs, templates operations.
