# IIIF APIs Reference (Image API 3.0 & Presentation API 3.0)
## Overview
The IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) consists of complementary APIs for delivering and presenting digital content:
- **Image API**: Web service for image manipulation and delivery via URI parameters
- **Presentation API**: JSON-LD format for describing structure, metadata, and presentation of compound digital objects
- **Content Search API**: Full-text search within IIIF resources
## IIIF Image API 3.0
## URI Syntax
### Base URI Template
```
{scheme}://{server}{/prefix}/{identifier}
```
### Image Request URI Template
```
{scheme}://{server}{/prefix}/{identifier}/{region}/{size}/{rotation}/{quality}.{format}

## IIIF Presentation API 3.0
### Purpose
The Presentation API provides a standardized way to describe compound digital objects (books, manuscripts, albums, etc.) with their structure, metadata, and presentation instructions. It uses JSON-LD format to enable rich viewing experiences across different client applications.
### Core Resource Types
#### Collection
Ordered list of Manifests and/or other Collections for hierarchical organization.
```json
{
"@context": "http://iiif.io/api/presentation/3/context.json",
"id": "https://example.org/collection/books",
"type": "Collection",
"label": { "en": ["Book Collection"] },
"items": [
{
"id": "https://example.org/manifest/book1",
"type": "Manifest",
"label": { "en": ["Book 1"] }
}
]
}
```
#### Manifest
Describes a single compound object with its structure, metadata, and viewing instructions.
```json
{
"@context": "http://iiif.io/api/presentation/3/context.json",
"id": "https://example.org/manifest/book1",
"type": "Manifest",
"label": { "en": ["Example Book"] },
"summary": { "en": ["A description of this book"] },
"metadata": [
{
"label": { "en": ["Author"] },
"value": { "en": ["Jane Doe"] }
}
],
"items": [
{
"id": "https://example.org/canvas/page1",
"type": "Canvas",
"label": { "en": ["Page 1"] },
"height": 1000,
"width": 750,
"items": [
{
"id": "https://example.org/page/page1/annopage",
"type": "AnnotationPage",
"items": [
{
"id": "https://example.org/page/page1/anno",
"type": "Annotation",
"motivation": "painting",
"body": {
"id": "https://example.org/iiif/page1/full/max/0/default.jpg",
"type": "Image",
"format": "image/jpeg",
"service": [
{
"id": "https://example.org/iiif/page1",
"type": "ImageService3",
"profile": "level2"
}
]
},
"target": "https://example.org/canvas/page1"
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
```
#### Canvas
Virtual container representing a view of the object (page, image, time segment) with defined dimensions.
- **Spatial**: Uses `height` and `width` properties
- **Temporal**: Uses `duration` property
- **Mixed**: Can have all three dimensions
#### Range
Defines structural sections within an object (chapters, movements, articles).
```json
{
"id": "https://example.org/range/chapter1",
"type": "Range",
"label": { "en": ["Chapter 1"] },
"items": [
{ "id": "https://example.org/canvas/page1", "type": "Canvas" },
{ "id": "https://example.org/canvas/page2", "type": "Canvas" }
]
}
```
#### Annotation & Annotation Page
Content is associated with Canvases through Annotations collected in Annotation Pages.
- **Painting motivation**: Content that is part of the Canvas (images, video, audio)
- **Supplementing motivation**: Content derived from the Canvas (transcriptions, translations)
- **Other motivations**: Commentary, tags, etc.
### Essential Properties
#### Required Properties
- **id**: HTTP(S) URI identifier
- **type**: Resource class (Collection, Manifest, Canvas, etc.)
- **label**: Human-readable name (internationalized)
#### Key Descriptive Properties
- **metadata**: Array of label/value pairs for display
- **summary**: Brief description
- **thumbnail**: Representative image(s)
- **provider**: Institution/organization information
- **rights**: License or rights statement URI
- **requiredStatement**: Text that must be displayed (attribution)
#### Technical Properties
- **height/width**: Pixel dimensions for images, aspect ratio for Canvas
- **duration**: Time length in seconds
- **format**: MIME type (e.g., "image/jpeg")
- **profile**: Schema or functionality description
- **viewingDirection**: Display order (left-to-right, right-to-left, etc.)
- **behavior**: Presentation hints (paged, continuous, individuals, etc.)
#### Structural Properties
- **items**: Ordered list of child resources
- **structures**: Top-level Ranges for table of contents
- **annotations**: Commentary Annotation Pages
### Language Internationalization
Properties like `label`, `summary`, and `metadata` use language maps:
```json
{
"label": {
"en": ["English Title"],
"fr": ["Titre Français"],
"none": ["No Language"]
}
}
```
### Behavior Values
Control presentation and navigation:
| Behavior | Applies To | Description |
|----------|------------|-------------|
| `auto-advance` | Collections, Manifests, Canvases, Ranges | Automatically proceed to next item |
| `no-auto-advance` | Collections, Manifests, Canvases, Ranges | Do not auto-advance (default) |
| `paged` | Collections, Manifests, Ranges | Page-turning interface |
| `continuous` | Collections, Manifests, Ranges | Virtually stitch views together |
| `individuals` | Collections, Manifests, Ranges | Distinct objects/views (default) |
| `unordered` | Collections, Manifests, Ranges | No inherent order |
| `facing-pages` | Canvases | Canvas shows both parts of opening |
| `sequence` | Ranges | Alternative ordering of Canvases |
| `hidden` | Annotations, etc. | Not rendered by default |

## Practical Integration Examples
## Practical Integration Examples
### Image API + Presentation API Workflow
1. **Presentation API** provides structure and metadata via Manifests
2. **Image API** delivers actual image content with manipulation capabilities
3. **Annotations** link Image API resources to Canvas positions
```json
{
"id": "https://example.org/canvas/page1",
"type": "Canvas",
"height": 1000,
"width": 750,
"items": [{
"id": "https://example.org/annopage/page1",
"type": "AnnotationPage",
"items": [{
"id": "https://example.org/annotation/page1-image",
"type": "Annotation",
"motivation": "painting",
"body": {
"id": "https://example.org/iiif/page1/full/max/0/default.jpg",
"type": "Image",
"format": "image/jpeg",
"service": [{
"id": "https://example.org/iiif/page1",
"type": "ImageService3",
"profile": "level2"
}]
},
"target": "https://example.org/canvas/page1"
}]
}]
}
```

```
### Universal Examples (Any IIIF Server)
## Key Implementation Notes
- Parameters must be in exact order: region/size/rotation/quality.format
- All special characters in identifiers must be URI encoded
- Operations are applied in parameter order: extract region → scale → rotate → adjust quality → convert format
- Servers SHOULD support CORS on image responses
- If region extends beyond image bounds, crop at edges rather than adding empty space
- Zero-dimension regions should return 400 Bad Request
## Error Handling and Rate Limiting
Common HTTP status codes:
- `400 Bad Request` - Invalid parameters
- `403 Forbidden` - Missing rights marking or access denied
- `404 Not Found` - Image/resource not found
- `429 Too Many Requests` - Rate limit exceeded (check X-RateLimit-* headers)
- `501 Not Implemented` - Feature not supported
## CORS Configuration
For external applications, configure CORS headers:
```
# Request header
Origin: https://yourdomain.com
# Response header
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://yourdomain.com
```
**Reverse Proxy Setup (recommended for external services):**
Apache HTTP Server:
```apache
ProxyPass /iiif/ https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/
ProxyPassReverse /iiif/ https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
```
Nginx:
```nginx
location /iiif/ {
proxy_pass https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/;
add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*";
}
```
## Programming Examples
### Python: Working with IIIF Manifests and Images
```python
import requests
import json
# Fetch and parse a IIIF Manifest
def get_manifest(manifest_url):
response = requests.get(manifest_url)
return response.json()
# Extract all image URLs from a manifest
def extract_image_urls(manifest):
image_urls = []
for canvas in manifest.get('items', []):
for annotation_page in canvas.get('items', []):
for annotation in annotation_page.get('items', []):
if annotation.get('motivation') == 'painting':
body = annotation.get('body', {})
if body.get('type') == 'Image':
image_urls.append(body.get('id'))
return image_urls
# Get image service base URL from image URL
def get_image_service_url(image_url):
# Remove the Image API parameters to get base service URL
# e.g., https://example.org/iiif/img1/full/max/0/default.jpg
# becomes https://example.org/iiif/img1
parts = image_url.split('/')
return '/'.join(parts[:-4]) # Remove /region/size/rotation/quality.format
# Generate thumbnail URL using Image API
def create_thumbnail_url(image_url, width=150, height=150):
service_url = get_image_service_url(image_url)
return f"{service_url}/full/!{width},{height}/0/default.jpg"
# Example usage
manifest_url = "https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/arkis!R0000480/manifest"
manifest = get_manifest(manifest_url)
images = extract_image_urls(manifest)
for img_url in images:
thumb_url = create_thumbnail_url(img_url)
print(f"Original: {img_url}")
print(f"Thumbnail: {thumb_url}")
```
### Python: Download Images from Riksarkivet Collection
```python
import requests
import sys
import json
import zipfile
import re
import os
URL_BASE = 'https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/collection/arkiv/'
def process_collection(collection, zip_file):
for item in collection.get('items', []):
res = requests.get(item.get('id'))
if res.status_code == 200:
item_json = res.json()
if item.get('type') == 'Collection':
process_collection(item_json, zip_file)
else:
process_manifest(item_json, zip_file)
def process_manifest(manifest, zip_file):
for canvas in manifest.get('items', []):
for annotation_page in canvas.get('items', []):
for annotation in annotation_page.get('items', []):
image_url = annotation.get('body', {}).get('id')
if image_url:
regex = re.compile('.*\!(.*)\/full.*')
result = regex.match(image_url)
if result:

### JavaScript: IIIF Viewer Integration
```javascript
// Universal Viewer integration
const manifestUri = 'https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/arkis!R0000480/manifest';
const uv = new UV.createUV('#uv-container', {
manifestUri: manifestUri,
configUri: '/uv-config.json'
});
// Mirador viewer integration
const mirador = Mirador.viewer({
id: 'mirador-container',
windows: [{
manifestId: manifestUri,
canvasId: 'https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/arkis!R0000480/canvas/1'
}]
});
// OpenSeadragon with IIIF Image service
const viewer = OpenSeadragon({
id: 'osd-container',
tileSources: {
'@context': 'http://iiif.io/api/image/3/context.json',
'@id': 'https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/arkis!R0000480_00001',
'profile': 'level1'
}
});
// Fetch manifest and display metadata
async function displayManifest(manifestUrl) {
const response = await fetch(manifestUrl);
const manifest = await response.json();
// Display basic info
const title = manifest.label?.en?.[0] || manifest.label?.sv?.[0] || 'Untitled';
const summary = manifest.summary?.en?.[0] || manifest.summary?.sv?.[0] || '';
document.getElementById('title').textContent = title;
document.getElementById('summary').textContent = summary;
// Display metadata
const metadataContainer = document.getElementById('metadata');
manifest.metadata?.forEach(item => {
const label = item.label?.en?.[0] || item.label?.sv?.[0] || '';
const value = item.value?.en?.[0] || item.value?.sv?.[0] || '';
const div = document.createElement('div');
div.innerHTML = `<strong>${label}:</strong> ${value}`;
metadataContainer.appendChild(div);
});
}
```
### Finding Image IDs from Archive Units
1. Get archive unit PID from search interface
2. Fetch collection data: `https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/collection/arkiv/{pid}`
3. Extract manifest URLs from `items` array
4. Parse image IDs from manifest image URLs
### IIIF Presentation API Structure
**Collection Response Example:**
```json
{
"id": "https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/collection/arkiv/2Yz2ClKdn2VMeUXQcoZOO6",
"type": "Collection",
"label": { "sv": ["1 (1654-1721) - Handlingar rörande förhandlingar..."] },
"summary": { "sv": ["Referenskod: SE/RA/2113/2113.2/1"] },
"items": [
{
"id": "https://lbiiif.riksarkivet.se/arkis!R0000480/manifest",
"type": "Manifest",
"label": { "sv": ["1 (1654-1721) - R0000480 - Handlingar..."] }
}
]
}
```
**Hierarchy:**
- **Collection** → Contains other Collections or Manifests
- **Manifest** → Contains Canvases (individual pages/images)
- **Canvas** → Contains image annotations with Image API URLs
## Common Use Cases
### Image API
- **Thumbnails** - Quick generation of preview images at specific sizes
- **Deep zoom viewers** - Requesting tiles and regions for interactive viewing
- **Responsive images** - Serving appropriate sizes for different devices
- **Image analysis** - Extracting specific regions for processing
- **Print quality** - High-resolution downloads with rotation/cropping
### Presentation API
- **Digital libraries** - Organizing books, manuscripts, and documents
- **Museum collections** - Presenting artworks with metadata and context
- **Archives** - Hierarchical organization of historical materials
- **Educational platforms** - Structured learning materials with annotations
- **Cultural heritage** - Multi-language, multi-institutional content sharing
### Combined Workflows
- **Reading room interfaces** - Full manuscripts with page-turning and zoom
- **Annotation tools** - Transcription and commentary systems
- **Comparative viewing** - Side-by-side analysis of similar materials
- **Mobile apps** - Responsive cultural heritage exploration
- **Research platforms** - Advanced search and analysis tools
## Implementation Notes
### Content Delivery Best Practices
- Use Image API for dynamic image manipulation and delivery
- Use Presentation API for metadata, structure, and viewing instructions
- Combine both APIs for complete digital object presentation
- Implement proper caching strategies for performance
- Consider CDN deployment for global access
### Client Application Patterns
1. **Parse Manifest** → Extract structure and metadata
2. **Render Canvas** → Display individual views/pages
3. **Load Images** → Use Image API services for content
4. **Handle Annotations** → Process transcriptions, translations, comments
5. **Navigate Structure** → Use Ranges for table of contents
6. **Apply Behaviors** → Follow presentation hints (paging, auto-advance, etc.)
