# Create cover upload

`POST /user/account/cover`

Start the cover image upload workflow by requesting an upload target.

This endpoint only prepares upload and does not apply the cover image.

Cover upload workflow:

1. Call this endpoint to receive upload data.
2. Upload the image file directly to the returned URL.
3. Call PATCH /user/account/cover to finalize and apply the uploaded image.

The account cover image changes only after the finalize step succeeds.

## Response `200`

Upload URL

- ImageUpload — Direct upload URL for an image
  - `id` string, required — Image identifier
  - `uploadURL` string, uri, required — URL to upload the image
