These are real renders from the API with the example values in the table below. Switch the size above: the same template lays itself out for all 6 sizes — send size or sizes with the request.
For creators, publishers and brands who announce every new post, video or article in their stories. The title autofits on the card, the label and the link end with an ellipsis, and without a picture the print shows an accent pattern with a play button. Vertical frames stack label, post and link in the middle of the safe zone; on wide frames the label becomes a big headline next to the post.
Fields
Every field is optional. Long text shrinks to fit instead of overflowing; an image field takes a public URL that we fetch on our side.

For anything more, copy the template into your account: you get an ordinary HTML template with the same fields that you can edit in the dashboard or through the API. If the slug is free on your account, the copy takes it — your integrations switch to your version without changing a line.
