Revert an asset to a retained version

Makes a retained version current and irreversibly deletes its descendants. Reverting to the current version is a no-op; a stale expected-current token returns 409.

post/api/assets/{asset_id}/versions/{version_id}/revert

Path parameters

asset_idstring required

Asset ID (with asset_ prefix) to revert.

version_idstring required

Version ID (with asset_version_ prefix) to make current. Every version at a later position is deleted.

Query parameters

expected_current_version_idstring required

Current version ID observed by the client. If stale, returns 409 without changes; refetch the asset before retrying.

Response

Successful Response

idstring required

Unique asset identifier with 'asset_' prefix

mime_typestring required

MIME type of the current rendering (e.g., 'image/jpeg', 'video/mp4').

original_file_namestring required

Filename the asset was uploaded under.

local_datetimestring date-time required

When the photo/video was taken, in the device's local timezone

created_atstring date-time required

When this asset record was created in the database

updated_atstring date-time required

When this asset record was last updated

metricsobject nullable

ML-generated quality scores and other metrics. null when not requested via include=metrics.

asset_urlsobject nullable

Named asset variants. Images: 'original', 'thumbnail', 'small', 'preview', 'fullsize'. Videos: 'original', plus 'thumbnail_image', 'small_image', 'preview_image', 'fullsize_image' pointing at the extracted still. 'original' is served with a Content-Disposition attachment header (signed 'dl' filename param) so a top-level navigation saves it to disk, while inline subresource loads (<video>, fetch) still render it. Variant URLs are stable: a derived variant may briefly 404 until its artifact is generated, then serve from the same URL.

descriptionstring nullable

AI-generated description of the asset's content, quality, and composition. null means description generation has not yet run; empty string means the model refused to describe the asset. Distinct from metadata.description (camera-embedded EXIF metadata).

thumbhashstring nullable

Base64-encoded ThumbHash placeholder (~28 chars). Clients decode with the thumbhash library (JS / Swift / Kotlin) to render an instant blurred preview before the CDN thumbnail arrives. null while generation is pending.

kindstring required

What produced the current rendering: original (the upload), edit (a client-baked edit), or external:<service>. The namespace is open — derive edited-ness as kind != "original".

current_version_idstring required

ID (asset_version_ prefix) of the current version, which the top-level rendering fields describe. Pass it as the expected current version on version writes so a racing write is rejected.

widthinteger

Width of the current rendering in pixels.

heightinteger

Height of the current rendering in pixels.

durationnumber nullable

Video length in seconds. null for images and for videos whose duration has not been extracted yet.

trashed_atstring date-time nullable

When this asset was moved to trash (ISO 8601, UTC). null for live assets. Trashed assets are excluded from default list/search results and are purged after the configured retention window.

stack_idstring nullable

ID of the stack this asset belongs to (asset_stack_ prefix), or null when the asset is not part of a stack. Group assets by this value to collapse a stack into a single tile; the stack's own cover and member count are not carried on the asset. Distinct from metadata.auto_stack_id, which is the camera's in-EXIF MakerNotes:AutoStackID string — this is the server-assigned foreign key to the asset's stack.
