Hi Jan / Team,

Few additional questions apart from the ones below.

   - Is any other image utility supported apart from png? What is the
   roadmap for this endpoint. Will this endpoint be actively supported by DHIS
   in future releases also?
   - any documentation around this endpoint.

We are waiting on your inputs as we are planning to use this endpoint in
our custom apps.

Thanks
