Image Service
https://image.groupme.com
Images uploaded to image service will return a URL that looks like this:
https://i.groupme.com/{width}x{height}.{format}.{id}
Where {width} and {height} are in pixels, {format} is for example "png" or "jpeg" and {id} is a unique id e.g.
https://i.groupme.com/480x325.jpeg.9e20b71dd6af4b58bbd132d4a7dec009
To try this out via cURL:
Store your access token in the GM_TOKEN environment variable first.
curl 'https://image.groupme.com/pictures' -X POST -H "X-Access-Token: $GM_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: image/jpeg" --data-binary @AwesomePicture.jpg
