Portfolio media stays private while TattooAPI verifies the upload and prepares it for review.

​
Processing Steps

  1. Resolve the artist or request identity review.
  2. Create a submission with the required rights and consent information.
  3. Upload the media to the returned signed URL.
  4. Complete the upload so TattooAPI can verify the file.
  5. Poll the submission status.
  6. Wait for an authorized reviewer.
A failed or incomplete upload must not be treated as a completed submission. Classification results and suggested tags are review evidence, not permission to publish.

​
Privacy And Publication

Keep signed upload URLs and private responses on your server. Do not put them in public pages or logs. Approval creates an approved private asset. It does not automatically make that asset visible in public portfolio reads. See Portfolio Intake Workflow, Submission Status, and Portfolio Write Policy.
