Hello,

How to fetch dynamically generated images?

ex. QR Code generator url: http://bwipjs-api.metafloor.com/?bcid=qrcode&text=546456456

https://res.cloudinary.com/[myaccount]/image/fetch/http://bwipjs-api.metafloor.com/?bcid=qrcode&text=546456456

I've got an ERROR 400.

Hi

Note that fetched URLs need to be escaped when they contain special characters.

encoding the shared URL does fetch the image correctly

https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/fetch/http%3A%2F%2Fbwipjs-api.metafloor.com%2F%3Fbcid%3Dqrcode%26text%3D546456456

You can read more about that in the article below:
