Troubleshooting renders

Most render problems come down to one of a few causes. Here are the common ones and how to fix each.

Text overflows or gets cut offText overflows or gets cut off

Your text is longer than the space you designed for. Design the text component for the longest realistic value, turn on auto-fit or wrapping, or shorten the input. Remember that fixed dimensions never reflow, so the layout stays pixel-perfect and long text needs room.

The wrong font shows upThe wrong font shows up

The font isn't available at render time. Use a font from the font list, or upload your custom font first so the renderer can embed it.

An image field renders blankAn image field renders blank

The image URL couldn't be loaded. Check that the URL is public, reachable, and points directly at an image file. A link behind a login or a redirect won't load.

A dynamic field isnt applyingA dynamic field isn't applying

The field name in your request doesn't match the template. Field names are case-sensitive, so title and Title are different. Confirm the exact name in the editor and match it exactly.

Your API key is missing or wrong. Copy a fresh key from your dashboard and send it in the Authorization header as Bearer <API_KEY>.

If a render still fails after these checks, reach out and include the design ID and the exact request you sent. That's usually enough to spot the cause fast.

Frequently asked questionsFrequently asked questions

Almost always a font issue. Make sure the font is on the font list or uploaded as a custom font so the renderer can use it.

Why is my image not showing in the renderWhy is my image not showing in the render?

The image URL isn't publicly reachable. Open it in a private browser window. If it needs a login or redirects, the renderer can't load it.

The API key is missing or invalid. Generate a new key in your dashboard and pass it as Bearer <API_KEY> in the Authorization header.
