Can the Styku API export formatted PDF scan reports, or only raw measurement data?
Can the Styku API export formatted PDF scan reports, or only raw measurement data?
Yes, the Styku API can retrieve a link to the formatted PDF summary report for each member — not just raw measurement data. This means you can use the API to automatically pull the full visual report, including body model and measurements, and file it into your client management system. API access is included in all current Styku business subscription plans (Access, Elite, and Enterprise). If you are on a legacy plan, API access may not be included — contact support to confirm your tier.
What the API Can Do
The Styku API includes a method that returns a download link to the PDF summary report for a given member profile. This gives you access to the same formatted report your clients would otherwise receive manually — including the 3D body model, measurements, and progress data.
For technical details on this specific API method, refer to the Styku API documentation:
- PDF Report endpoint: https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/Styku/external-api/2.0.0#/default/get_external_profile_summaryreport

What You'll Need to Get Started
- Styku subscription — API access is included at different tiers in each of the Styku subscription plans. If you do not have a Styku subscription, contact Styku Support to subscribe.
- API key — Once your subscription is active, Styku's engineering team will generate an API key and send it to you.
- A Windows environment or server-side integration — The Styku Studio desktop software runs on Windows only. However, once you have an API key, you can make API calls from any platform, including macOS, as API calls are made over the internet rather than through the desktop app.
Developer compliance requirements
Building on the Styku API requires compliance with Styku's platform policies covering data permission, security, acceptable use, data deletion, and usage monitoring. See the related articles below for the full requirements.
Accessing Styku Data on a Second Computer or Mac
The Styku Studio desktop app is Windows-only and cannot be installed on macOS. However, there are two ways to review client data without being at the scanner computer:
- Styku mobile app — Available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. End-users (people who have been scanned) can view their own 3D body data, measurements, and progress on their mobile device.
- API integration — With an active API subscription, you can retrieve scan data and report links programmatically from any device or platform, including a Mac, and route them into your client management system automatically.
How to get API access
See Does Styku have an API, and how do I get access? for subscription tiers, pricing, and step-by-step access instructions.
If this resolves your issue, no further action is needed.
If the problem persists, contact support and include: your account email address, confirmation of your API add-on subscription status, the specific API endpoint or error you are encountering, and whether you have received your API key.
