A file response carries X-Sada-Job and X-Sada-Expires-At. For long work, post to /v1/tools/change-dpi/jobs instead. See jobs and webhooks.

Also runs on the device

In the web tool and apps, Change Image DPI can run locally with no upload. The API always processes on the server.

These settings power the matching pages on the site, and work the same in the API.
