Import images via make.com API

[Michael159]

I can't import images via make.com's API. No matter which product image I want to import, I always get the same error. Does somebody has any idea?

I entered the U R L to the image.

DataError

image: Could not process image: ["Could not generate an image extension name."].

Thank you very much. Greetings Michael

Hey @Michael159 

This is our German community but we can chat in Englisch too if you prefer.

Are you experiencing intermittent issues with uploading product images through the Product Image API, and receiving the "Dataerror" you mention above in the API response. Have you tried re-running the requests again, perhaps changing http to https or vice versa? Have you seen our developer doc on that here? What is the API version and can you update it? See also our dev doc on that here.

There are also a few threads on this topic here even though a bit older but feel free to post your question there too. 

• Uploading Product Images From AWS S3 To Shopify Through API Call Fails
• Problem Creating Image Via Url
• HTTP Response From Admin REST API On Wrong Content-Type For Product Image

Sorry I can't help more in this case and hope the links can help you further! 😉

Hallo Gabe, mittlerweile habe ich die Lösung gefunden. Ich musste die Image Datei umwandeln in binäre Daten. Bei make.com gibt es ein Modul "HTTP" - Get a File. Dort erhält man die binären Daten der Image Datei und kann diese in das Datenfeld "DATA" importieren. Dann klappt es. Lieben Dank fürs Kümmern. LG Michae
