Hello!

While making API calls to create a 'photo' post, I've noticed that when I open the post in Tumblr UI thru Edit -> Preview, the image is not displayed. If open developer console I see that request to download the image crashes with 403 Forbidden. Opening the image url directly in browser responds with:

<Error>
<Code>AccessDenied</Code>
<Message>Access Denied</Message>
<RequestId>75769E6C79A5B791</RequestId>
<HostId>
i6Ttb5KbLI1SXqBxUVDtsz1wS4HcBq2KoLtTcbLEFF1DGNtRxH1MqHeQmVyGvcwO
</HostId>
</Error>

Is it me doing something incorrectly?

Can you tell me the url of the image you're trying to see?

Now its really weird. I tried to replicate this issue and now on preview page I see correct caption, but image itself is from another post:

This is actually a preview bug that we're aware of on the edit screen of the application. Feel free to report that to sup...@tumblr.com
