Practical examples

Example 1: Base64 to PNG

Input: data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA...

Output: decoded.png

PNG output is resolved automatically for preview/download flows.

Example 2: Base64 to JPG from API payload

Input: {"payload":"/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD..."}

Output: decoded.jpg

Useful while debugging integration logs and queue consumers.

Edge cases

  • Payloads without correct Base64 padding (=) may be treated as corrupted.
  • Extra whitespace or line breaks inside Base64 often cause parse/decode failures.
  • When data URI MIME does not match actual PNG, JPG, GIF, WEBP content, output may open with a wrong app.

Common errors

Error: InvalidCharacterError

Cause: Input contains characters outside the Base64 alphabet.

Fix: Trim whitespace, remove invalid symbols, and retry decoding.

Error: Corrupted decoded file

Cause: Source payload was truncated while copying/transmitting.

Fix: Verify payload length against the original and resend full content.

Error: Wrong output extension

Cause: Declared MIME does not match expected PNG, JPG, GIF, WEBP content.

Fix: Use the matching format route or provide a correct data URI MIME.
