Aura has a big searchable asset library at:
Use it like Unsplash: search by tag, pick 5 strong candidates, and return direct image URLs.
How to search (fast)
-
Use the search box or URL query:
-
https://www.aura.build/assets?q=<tag>&order=popular
-
Tags that work well: background , abstract , architecture , portrait , headshot
URL formats (what to return)
Aura thumbnails commonly look like:
https://hoirqrkdgbmvpwutwuwj.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/assets/assets/<UUID>_800w.jpg
Higher-res (recommended)
Many images support a larger variant by swapping:
- _800w → _1600w
Example:
-
800w: .../<id>_800w.jpg
-
1600w: .../<id>_1600w.jpg
If a _1600w variant 404s, keep _800w and instruct the user to open the asset page and download/export.
