Hello everyone.

I am the beginner of thunkable X, and I’m struggling to make application with api.

The api that I use is showing png data through POST method.

Request result was successful (Status was 200) but the type of result is chunked png file.

How can I show this type to the screen? I really need help.

suggest me encoding api or other solutions, thanks a lot.

Hey @kingdoheee 👋

You should be able to use the [image component](https://docs.thunkable.com/image-1) to display .png files.

Let us know if that works for you.
