## Definitions

### `dev.knotless.uploadImage`

**Type**: `procedure`

Uploads the body, a PNG, JPEG, WebP or GIF, as a blob of the account logged in to this appview's web pages, as `knotless issue --image` does: one over 1,000,000 bytes is drawn again as a JPEG that fits, at most 2000 pixels on its longest side. Its PDS keeps it only once a record attaches it: give it as one of dev.knotless.createIssue's, createPull's, createComment's or editItem's `images`, with a body linking to `url`. Requires the session cookie the pages' login sets.

#### Input

**Encoding**: `*/*`

#### Output

**Encoding**: `application/json`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `blob` | `blob` | Yes | The picture as uploaded, to attach. |
| `url` | `string` (uri) | Yes | Where its account's PDS serves it, for the body to link to. |

#### Errors

- **NotFound**: No such repository.
- **InvalidRequest**: No picture, or one that is not a PNG, JPEG, WebP or GIF.
- **AuthenticationRequired**: No account is logged in to the pages, or its session has ended.
