"Image Format Not Supported & Missing creation_id Error When Using Google Drive Image URL in Pabbly Connect"

[muhamed]

Hi everyone,

I'm getting two errors when trying to post an image using Pabbly Connect with a Google Drive URL:

1. "The image format is not supported"
2. "(#100) The parameter creation_id is required."

I'm using an image hosted on Google Drive, and I passed the public shareable link in the image URL field. Here's the URL format I used:

bash
CopyEdit

https://drive.google.com/file/d/FILE_ID/view?usp=sharing

Pabbly returns the following:

• Error Type: OAuthException
• Error Code: 36001
• Subcode: 2207005
• Error Message: The image format is not supported.
• (#100) The parameter creation_id is required.

I'm not sure if the Google Drive link is the issue, or if I need to first upload the image and get a creation_id before publishing.

Can anyone help me understand:

• How to properly use an image URL in this case?
• What is the correct flow to handle the creation_id requirement?
• Should I use another image hosting service?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!
