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

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

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!

Hey @muhamed

The URL that you are currently using, appears to be private. The file must be publicly accessible in order to upload it on Instagram.


Further, you can use "File Uploader by Pabbly" to get a URL to be entered in the Instagram step.

Kindly try it out and let us know if it works for you.

Hey @muhamed

We have checked and added the steps properly, but the file is still in a private Google Drive access.

Kindly re-capture a webhook response with a publicly accessible file an try again.
