- Specify an ISBN-13/EAN as part of a URL. The query should look like this:
- https://www.biblioshare.org/bncServices/BNCServices.asmx/DetailImages?token=string&san=string&ean=string&thumbnail=yes&Perspective=interior&FileNumber=int&maxWidth=&maxHeight=
- Token = Your user token
- EAN = The item you are looking for a cover an interior image of. Without hyphens. 13 digits, likely starting with 978, or perhaps 979.
- SAN = The SAN of the supplier. Note: In almost all cases this should be left empty. If this is the case, remove "string" so your URL reads ...&SAN=&Thumbnail.
- Thumbnail = True/False. This is fairly self-explanatory, but 'True' returns a 140px by Y thumbnail of the image and 'False' returns the full-size image as supplied by the publisher.
- Perspective = Interior. This indicates the type of image you are pulling back.
- FileNumber = integer. This will pull back the sequence number of the interior image as indicated by the image provider in the file name.
- Insert the above into an HTML image tag (i.e. <img src ="https://www.biblioshare.org//BNCServices/BNCServices.asmx/DetailImages?Token=...">) and publish it. You could also script something to build these links automagically.
- If we don't have an image for the specified item, we will return a placeholder image (120px by 120px).

- The message will either read "No Image Available," or "Invalid Login" (if your token is bad).
