Hi everyone! I wanna try to create an app which allow me to upload images on some hosting service like Imgur or TinyPic, and saving the link. Can I use only WebViewer or I also need the Web component? And how would I do that, anyway?
Thank you!
Thank you. However, I’ve found a previous post, which states that it’s not possible to upload images on Imgur with App Inventor:
So, is there another way to upload images and get the URL?
Thanks again.
I tried to follow the guide that was suggested me here, to add API Imgur to my app: https://apidocs.imgur.com/?version=latest but unfortunately there are some not really clear points, so I need a few additional clarifications.
My concerns are the following:
- according to that guide, I’m supposed to register my app on Postman, but what’s unclear to me is how should I proceed, since my app is still being developed on App Inventor;
- apparently, there’s a rate limit of 1250 uploads per day, otherwise the app will be blocked: so, this means that, in the optimistic expectation that my app will be downloaded by over 1250 users, I should expect trouble?
- if I want to monetize my app, I should register with RapidAPI, and choose a pricing plan: at this point I wonder, is there any valid and free alternative to Imgur? And if, for example, I implement a registration system to Dropbox for my users, so that each of them can upload his/her photo independently?
Thank you for your answers.
Yes, I might consider using Google drive or a web server, but I’d prefer a hosting which allow each user to crate his/her own personal space, that’s why I was wondering if there was a way to implement a hosting registration system for each user.
Hi! I’ve tried Pictodrive on App Inventor, but doesn’t seems to work at all.
Does it work only on Kodular?
Thanks.
Yeah! i'm using google app script to run the entire function

Try this:
And again:
“You are right that, of each uploaded file the owner is ct_tricks.”
No, ct_tricks is the possessor, but not the owner (having the property rights).
I am concerned with file ownership in terms of google accounts, not copyright/property rights.
You can always set “imageFormat” to jpg
