# Get Verification Watermarked Image

`GET /v1/verifications/{verification_id}/renditions/signed/original`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.lumethic.com`
- URL: `https://api.lumethic.com/v1/verifications/{verification_id}/renditions/signed/original`
- Auth: `OAuth2PasswordBearer` (a scheme the document does not define)

Download the original JPEG with the Lumethic badge strip (the "asset tag" rendition).

Retrieve the original JPEG with a dark strip appended at the bottom and a date stamp
overlaid on the photo. There is **no QR code** on the rendition (WatermarkService is
designed without one; several platforms strip or ban them). A scannable link is built
client-side from the share URL when the verification is shared.

**Authentication Required**: Valid API key or JWT token (verification owner only)

**Path Parameters**:
- **verification_id**: Unique identifier for the verification

**What the rendition carries**:
- A neon date stamp on the photo itself, bottom-right: the verification's server-side
  `created_at` in UTC, formatted `19 SEP '26` (not the camera's DateTimeOriginal)
- A bottom strip: `LUMETHIC` | shutter, aperture and ISO read from the RAW metadata |
  `REF: L-XXXXXX`, the verification's `short_code` (omitted on legacy rows without one)
- No logo image, no "verified" wording, no URL

The strip is rendered once, at verification time, and stored; changing the wording
does not alter renditions that already exist.

**Response**: Returns a 302 redirect to a temporary pre-signed URL (valid for 1 hour)

**Requirements**:
- The rendition is generated only when the pair graded `verified` (a `provisional`
  pair keeps result = true but gets no badge); this endpoint then requires result = true
- Available on every plan, including Free

**Status Codes**:
- 302: Redirect to watermarked image URL
- 404: Verification not found, verification failed, or watermarked image not available

**Use Cases**:
- Share verified photos with embedded proof of authenticity
- Add verification stamps to portfolio images
- Provide clients with verified images that link to verification results

## Path parameters

- `verification_id` string, required

## Headers

- `X-API-Key` string, nullable

## Other responses

- `302`: Redirect to pre-signed S3 URL for the watermarked image
- `307`: Redirect to watermarked image URL with verification strip.
- `404`: Not found
- `422`: Validation Error
