The remove.bg API moves to Leonardo.Ai on Dec 1, 2026. Migrate by changing one URL (scripts, Zapier, Make, n8n)

Описание и применение

Переход remove.bg на Leonardo.Ai 1 декабря 2026 г. Требует смены URL и заголовка авторизации, сохраняя существующую логику кода и рабочих процессов.

Задача

remove.bg API will stop working after Dec 1 2026, forcing users to migrate to Leonardo.Ai or alternative services.

Результат

Migrating to the Apify drop‑in endpoint requires only a URL change and header update, preserving existing code and workflow logic while avoiding the upcoming service shutdown.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Identify all remove.bg API calls in code or workflows.
• 2. Replace the base URL with the Apify drop‑in URL.
• 3. Change the authentication header from X-Api-Key to Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN>. 4. Verify that the same form fields are used and that the response image and headers are unchanged. 5. Test the updated integration with sample images.
• 6. For bulk jobs, use the Apify AI Background Remover actor, mapping imageUrls, output, backgroundColor, cropToSubject, paddingPercent, and outputFormat.
• 7. In no‑code platforms, replace the remove.bg module with an HTTP request module or Apify → Run Actor integration.
• 8. Monitor usage and cost ($0.005 per image).
