    Returns Overflow drawings by id, up to 20 at a time, as SVG or JSX. Icons and isometric stills come back inline as markup. Illustrations and animated isometric drawings, which run to tens of kilobytes, come back as a download link that works for fifteen minutes, with a curl command that saves the file; the delivery option returns them inline instead. Free drawings need no key; the others need an Overflow Pro licence key sent with the connection. Each result ends with the licence terms.

    Returns Overflow drawings by id, up to 20 at a time, as SVG or JSX. Icons and isometric stills of up to 32 KB come back inline as markup. Illustrations, larger isometric drawings and animated ones come back as a download link that works for fifteen minutes, with a curl command that saves the file; the delivery option returns them inline instead. An isometric drawing comes in any of the set page's six styles, facing right or left, and standing or lying where it has been drawn so. Free drawings need no key; the others, and the isometric Pro styles, need an Overflow Pro licence key sent with the connection. Each result ends with the licence terms.

  • search_drawingschangeddescription

    Searches Overflow Design's hand-drawn drawings by what they show: 1,120 icons, 457 illustrations and 71 isometric drawings. Use it when the user wants an icon, an illustration or an isometric drawing. Every word of the query must match a drawing's name or tags, and "icon", "illustration" or "isometric" in the query narrows the search to that set. Returns each match's id, name, set, category and page link, and marks the drawings this connection cannot fetch because they need an Overflow Pro licence.

    Fetch drawings by the ids search_drawings returns, up to 20 at a time. Icons and isometric stills come back inline as markup to write into a file or a component. Illustrations and animated drawings come back as a download link with a curl command, since they run to tens of kilobytes; delivery changes that. Free drawings need no key, the rest need a Pro licence key on this connection. Put each file where the project keeps its icons or images and use it as delivered: do not redraw or restyle it, size it with width and height or CSS, and stop once it is in place. The result ends with the licence terms.

    before

    Search Overflow Design's drawings by what they show: 1,120 icons, 457 illustrations and 71 isometric drawings. Every word must match, so use the plain noun (calendar, shopping cart, teamwork) and try a synonym if nothing comes back. "icon", "illustration" or "isometric" in the query narrows to that set. Returns ids for get_drawings, and marks the drawings this connection cannot fetch because they need Pro. If the request is vague or several drawings fit it equally well, show the user two or three and let them choose.
