Apply translation transformation to move images horizontally and vertically. Visualize the translation matrix and see how pixel coordinates shift.
Call this tool from your code in three languages.
# 1) Upload each file first → returns { filePath }
curl -X POST 'https://api.elysiatools.com/upload/image-translation' \
-F 'file=@/path/to/imageFile.ext'
# 2) Call the tool with the returned filePath values
curl -X POST 'https://api.elysiatools.com/en/api/tools/image-translation' \
-F 'imageFile=/path/to/file.ext' \
-F 'translateX=0' \
-F 'translateY=0' \
-F 'background=transparent' \
-F 'format=original' \
-F 'quality=95'Send a POST request with your inputs as JSON. File parameters require a separate upload first.
POST https://api.elysiatools.com/en/api/tools/image-translation| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| imageFile | fileupload required | Yes | Upload any image file (JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, TIFF) for translation transformation |
| translateX | range | Yes | Horizontal translation in pixels (-500 to 500, positive = right, negative = left) |
| translateY | range | Yes | Vertical translation in pixels (-500 to 500, positive = down, negative = up) |
| background | text | No | Background color for transparent areas (hex #RRGGBB or #RRGGBBAA, or color name) |

}Invoke the tool by its id, passing arguments built from its parameters:

}
}
}| format |
| select |
| No |
| Choose output format or keep original. PNG recommended for transparency |
| quality | number | No | Output quality for lossy formats (JPEG, WebP). Higher = better quality but larger file size |
