I would like to get an uploaded image (public_id:currentPostId) from cloudinary and upload it again with another public_id (postProperties._id). I tried the following code but got error. Can anyone help me?

var currentPostId = this._id;
    if ("undefined" === typeof file) {
      var photo=new File(["http://res.cloudinary.com/dcyqpeqbh/image/upload/"+currentPostId+".jpg"],currentPostId+".jpg",{type: "image/jpeg"})
      console.log(photo)
       
      postProperties._id = Posts.insert(postProperties);
      Cloudinary.upload(photo, {public_id: postProperties._id}, function(err, res) {
        console.log("Upload Error: " + err);
        console.log("Upload Result: " + res);
        console.log(err)
      });

post_edit.js:58 Upload Error: [object Object]
post_edit.js:59 Upload Result: null

  Hi Wang,

  You can simply pass the URL of the image to the upload request, something like:

  var photo="http://res.cloudinary.com/dcyqpeqbh/image/upload/"+currentPostId+".jpg"

  ...

  Cloudinary.upload(photo, {public_id: postProperties._id}, function(err, res) {

  ...

   

  Please let us know if it works for you?
