# Speech bubble card

Social card with text in a speech bubble.

This is a working HTML/CSS to Image API example that produces an image.
The rendered output, source, and non-content request parameters below show the parts needed to reproduce or adapt it.

## Request parameters

These are the additional non-content parameters used by the example. Combine them with the HTML and CSS above when constructing an API request.

```json
{}
```

## Complete Go request (net/http)

This is the complete Go request for this example using net/http. It includes the HTML, CSS, authentication setup, API options, and response handling needed to reproduce the output.

```go
package main

import (
    "bytes"
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "io"
    "net/http"
    "os"
    "time"
)

func main() {
    request := map[string]any{
        "html": `<div class="p-4 text-center" style="width: 500px">
  <div class="speech-bubble-ds">
