  how can I integrate following options to the cURL functions:

  crop c_limit

  progessive fl_progrssive

  and different sizes to which the image should be resized

  for example: w_2560,h_1600 and w_1920,h_1080

  Thanks for any help

  Hi Svenja, can you please try editing your script as per the below - 
  
  

  Set Variable [ $transformation; Value:"w_2560,h_1600,c_limit,fl_progressive" ]
  
  Set Variable [ $data; Value:"file=" & $file_to_upload & "&public_id=" & $public_id & "&timestamp=" & $timestamp & "&api_key=" & $api_key & "&signature=" & $signature & "&transformation=" & $transformation]

  Is there a way to specify what folder to upload to in Cloudinary.  From the filemaker script?

  Hi Kevin,

  The folder(s) are part of the public_ids by default, therefore, you can set the folder or sub-folders as part of your $public_id value. E.g. You can set the public_id to be "folder1/folder2/image" and it'll result in the image being stored under the two folders specified.

  Alternatively, you can add a new parameter in the upload called 'folder'.

  Set Variable [ $folder; Value:"example_folder" ]

  If you decided to use the public_id approach and add the folder as part of that variable then you don't need to update another part of the code.

  On the other hand, if you decided to supply a 'folder' parameter then you will also need to add it to the line (39 in the above example) that generates the authentication signature. In addition, you would also add it to the $data variable in the post's example (line 40). Please note that the parameters passed for signing need to be ordered alphabetically, therefore, in the above example, the folder would be the first parameter. 

  Please try this and let us know how it goes.

  Hi,

  You will need to change the `$server` variable to actually point to the destroy endpoint:

  Set Variable [ $server; Value:"https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/" & $cloud_name & "/image/destroy" ]

  Then remove the `file_to_upload` parameter from the `$data` variable as we only need the `public_id` as mentioned in the endpoint documentation:

  Set Variable [ $data; Value:"public_id=" & $public_id & "&timestamp=" & $timestamp & "&api_key=" & $api_key & "&signature=" & $signature ]

  So the payload, starting L35, should look like this:

  Set Variable [ $server; Value:"https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/" & $cloud_name & "/image/destroy" ]
  Set Variable [ $public_id; Value:"my_public_id" ]
  Set Variable [ $signature; Value:HexEncode ( CryptDigest ( "public_id=" & $public_id & "&timestamp=" & $timestamp & $api_secret ; "SHA1" ) ) ]
  Set Variable [ $data; Value:"public_id=" & $public_id & "&timestamp=" & $timestamp & "&api_key=" & $api_key & "&signature=" & $signature ]
  Set Variable [ $options; Value:"-d " & "\"" & $data & "\"" ]

  Please have a look and let us know how it goes.

  we are running the filemaker image upload function very well since years, how is it possible to upload an vtt file?

  Thanks a lot for any help!

  Hi Svenja, 

  Thanks so much for reaching out. 

  We do support uploading vtt files. These would fall under the umbrella of a raw file type. So you will need to either upload as ``` resource_type: 'raw' ``` or ``` resource_type: 'auto' ```, which will let Cloudinary determine the type of file being uploaded. 
  I will link to our documentation on the 'auto' resource type for your reference:https://cloudinary.com/documentation/upload_images#the_39_auto_39_resource_type 

  I'm not familiar with filemaker, but I think the line from the code above that you will need to change is line 35. instead of 

  Set Variable [ $server; Value:"https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/" & $cloud_name & "/image/upload" ]

  you will want to use:

  Set Variable [ $server; Value:"https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/" & $cloud_name & "/raw/upload" ]

  I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

  Kind Regards, 

  Tia

  Hi Tia,

  thanks a lot, it works as long as the code snippet in line 36 is changed from

  data:image/jpeg;base64

  to

  data:text/vtt;base64

   

  All the best,

  Christoph
