# Redirect to the cover picture, signed at request time

`GET /public/diaries/{id}/cover`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://whatareyoudo.ing/api/v1`
- URL: `https://whatareyoudo.ing/api/v1/public/diaries/{id}/cover`
- Auth: none declared

The bucket is private, so a cover is read through a signed URL that expires within the hour. A share card's image is fetched by somebody else's crawler, later -- this URL does not expire.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, uuid, required

## Other responses

- `302`: Found -- the signed URL is in Location
- `404`: Not found, or not public
