Save an URL as image

Support
1

Hello,

I am excited about using Web APIs, but I am facing an issue when trying to save an image from a URL returned by an API. Specifically, I am using the following API: https://api.thecatapi.com/v1/images/search, which returns a JSON result that includes an image URL.

For instance, the JSON result looks like this:

[{“id”:“qinVu0VLV”,“url”:“https://cdn2.thecatapi.com/images/qinVu0VLV.jpg",“width”:862,"height”:1077}]

I would like to save the image from the “url” field as a picture in Triggre, but I am having trouble doing this with the data from the flow. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Ronald

Hi @ronald,

We have exactly that feature on our backlog. For specifically that reason :smile:

Since I don’t know yet when it will be released, a workaround for now might be to use Zapier to get you the image and send it to a Triggre automation flow.

Hope that is both informative and helpful!
