What is a PSD Mockup API?

A PSD Mockup API is a REST endpoint that processes Adobe Photoshop files, replacing Smart Object layers with dynamic images/text and returning rendered mockups via HTTP.

Is there a free mockup API?

Yes. SudoMock offers 500 free API credits with no credit card required. Dashboard usage is completely free and unlimited forever. Test your workflow before committing to a paid plan.

How to automate Photoshop mockups?

Upload your PSD template to SudoMock API, map Smart Object UUIDs to your design assets, and call the render endpoint. Integrate with n8n, Zapier, or Make for fully automated workflows.

How to create mockups without Photoshop?

Use SudoMock's REST API or free dashboard. Upload a PSD template once, then generate unlimited variations programmatically. No Adobe subscription or desktop software required.

How does SudoMock compare to Adobe Photoshop API pricing?

SudoMock costs $0.002 per render on Scale plans - 75x more efficient than competitors. Same PSD processing quality, predictable monthly pricing.

Can I use SudoMock for Print on Demand automation?

Yes. SudoMock was built for POD sellers. Generate product mockups for Etsy, Amazon, Shopify at scale. Batch processing handles thousands of variants in minutes.

How fast is the rendering?

CDN-hosted output URLs. 2B+ renders served with 99.9% uptime. Parallel limits vary by plan.

What output formats are supported?

PNG, JPEG, and WebP. Configure quality (1-100), resolution up to 8000px, and transparency (alpha channel). WebP default for optimal CDN delivery and page speed.

Do you support batch processing?

Yes. Send multiple render requests in parallel using our REST API. Parallel limits vary by plan. For high-volume needs, contact us for enterprise limits.

Which Photoshop blend modes are supported?

SudoMock supports all 27 Photoshop blend modes: Normal, Dissolve, Darken, Multiply, Color Burn, Linear Burn, Darker Color, Lighten, Screen, Color Dodge, Linear Dodge, Lighter Color, Overlay, Soft Light, Hard Light, Vivid Light, Linear Light, Pin Light, Hard Mix, Difference, Exclusion, Subtract, Divide, Hue, Saturation, Color, and Luminosity.

Are there any layer limits?

No artificial layer limits. SudoMock processes complex PSD files with deep layer hierarchies. Layer effects like Drop Shadow, Stroke, and Blend If are fully supported. Professional-grade output for print-ready workflows.

DELETE

Delete Mockup

Permanently delete a mockup and all associated files including layers, thumbnails, and rendered images.

DELETE/api/v1/mockups/{uuid}

Destructive Action

This action is permanent and cannot be undone. Deleting a mockup will remove:

The mockup template and metadata
All associated smart object definitions
All layer configurations
All generated thumbnails
All rendered images for this mockup

Request

Headers

X-API-KEYstringRequired

Your SudoMock API key starting with sm_

Path Parameters

uuidstringRequired

The unique identifier of the mockup to delete. You receive this UUID when uploading a PSD file.

Code Examples

Delete Mockup

bash

1curl -X DELETE "https://api.sudomock.com/api/v1/mockups/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000" \
2  -H "X-API-KEY: sm_your_api_key"

Response

Success Response

204No Content

A successful deletion returns a 204 No Content response with an empty body. This is standard REST behavior for DELETE operations.

Handling 204 Response

Do not attempt to parse the response body when you receive a 204 status code. Simply check that response.status === 204 to confirm success.

Error Responses

401Unauthorized

Missing or invalid API key.

json

1{
2  "detail": "Invalid or missing API key",
3  "success": false
4}

404Not Found

The mockup does not exist or is not owned by the authenticated user.

json

1{
2  "detail": "Mockup not found",
3  "success": false
4}

500Internal Server Error

An unexpected error occurred while processing the deletion.

json

1{
2  "detail": "Internal error while deleting mockup",
3  "success": false
4}

Error Handling

Status	Meaning	Action
204	Mockup deleted successfully	No action needed
401	Authentication failed	Check your API key
404	Mockup not found	Verify the mockup UUID exists and belongs to your account
500	Server error	Retry the request or contact support

Best Practices

Recommended Practices

Confirm before deleting: Always show a confirmation dialog to users before deleting mockups
Keep backups: If the mockup is important, download or backup renders before deletion
Handle 404 gracefully: The mockup may have already been deleted; treat 404 as a soft success
Use idempotent retries: DELETE is idempotent; retrying a failed request is safe

File Cleanup

When you delete a mockup, all associated files are removed asynchronously from storage. The API response returns immediately after the database records are deleted. File cleanup typically completes within a few seconds.
