## Bind the Images API to your Worker

Feb 24, 2025 

[ Cloudflare Images ](https://developers.cloudflare.com/images/) 

You can now [interact with the Images API](https://developers.cloudflare.com/images/optimization/binding/) directly in your Worker.

This allows more fine-grained control over transformation request flows and cache behavior. For example, you can resize, manipulate, and overlay images without requiring them to be accessible through a URL.

The Images binding can be configured in the Cloudflare dashboard for your Worker or in the Wrangler configuration file in your project's directory:

* [  wrangler.jsonc ](#tab-panel-2779)
* [  wrangler.toml ](#tab-panel-2780)

JSONC

```
{  "images": {    "binding": "IMAGES", // i.e. available in your Worker on env.IMAGES  },}
```

TOML

```
[images]binding = "IMAGES"
```

Within your Worker code, you can interact with this binding by using `env.IMAGES`.

Here's how you can rotate, resize, and blur an image, then output the image as AVIF:

TypeScript

```
const info = await env.IMAGES.info(stream);// stream contains a valid image, and width/height is available on the info object
const response = (  await env.IMAGES.input(stream)    .transform({ rotate: 90 })    .transform({ width: 128 })    .transform({ blur: 20 })    .output({ format: "image/avif" })).response();
return response;
```
