Blooio API Reference
Chats

Set chat background

Set or update the background image for a conversation. Works for both 1-on-1 and group chats.

The request body must be multipart/form-data with a single background field containing the raw image file bytes (not a URL or base64 string). Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, HEIC/HEIF. Maximum file size: 10 MB.

Example with curl — note the @ prefix that tells curl to read the file from disk:

curl -X PUT "https://backend.blooio.com/v2/api/chats/%2B15551234567/background" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -F "background=@/path/to/image.jpg;type=image/jpeg"

When the chat id is a phone number, percent-encode the leading + as %2B in the URL path.

PUT
/chats/{chatId}/background
