- Get Auth Status
Verify API authentication and check which project the API key is scoped to. Use this to validate credentials before making other API calls or to confirm the project context.

This tool retrieves a list of all available fonts in Bannerbear. The fonts are categorized into Serif, Sans Serif, Novelty, International, and Custom, and can be used to verify font availability prior to creating or modifying images.
- Get Image
Retrieves a single Image object by its unique identifier (UID). Use this to check the status of an image generation request, retrieve the final image URL, or poll for completion. When using a Master API Key, you must provide the project_id parameter.

Use when you need to set up a reusable template for generating videos with overlays, transcriptions, or multi-layer video compositions.
