Downloading images from Cloudinary in Android

I'm trying to figure out what the optimal workflow would be for an image transformation process in which a transformed image is again uploaded to another API.

According to Cloudinary (http://cloudinary.com/documentation/image_transformations#resizing_and_cropping_images), I can access uploaded images with the following kind of URL structure and also simultaneously transform them: ``http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/w_200,h_100/sample.jpg``.

Assuming that sample.jpg already exists in Cloudinary, the provided link will fetch it with a image resize transformation already applied.

Can I simply provide this link to Picasso and turn it into a Bitmap?

 Picasso.with(this)
 .load("http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/w_200,h_100/sample.jpg")
 .into(new Target() {
 @Override
 public void onBitmapLoaded (final Bitmap bitmap, Picasso.LoadedFrom from){
 /* Save the bitmap or do something with it here */
 UploadBitmap(bitmap);
 }
 });

Also does the support forum provide code markdown? That would be really helpful. Thanks!

  Hi Martin,

   

  Your load code looks correct. Specifying the `width` and `height` in the URL will manipulate the image on-the-fly, delivering a resized image to Picasso.

  And yes, the forum does support code markdown:)
