Can I optimize an image from a third party url?
I have a bunch of image urls from third party sites. I remember there being some syntax to transform the directly in the url, is that still possible?
So as a concrete example, if this is my 3rd party url:
https://picsum.photos/id/237/200/300
Can I proxy this over cloudinary somewhat like this where I just put the original photo url in the cloudinary url:
https://res.cloudinary.com/myBrand/image/w_200/picsum.photos/id/237/200/300
or will I have to download the image and then reupload it to cloudinary first? I don't have a backend so reuploading would be a lot of extra work

Hi Jesco,
When using the transformation parameters on remote images, you could use the remote media files delivery. This feature would help you to automatically upload the asset to your Media Library account before it is rendered to your client's local browser. Additionally, you could also apply the on-the-fly transformations while auto-uploading, when delivering the assets on your website.
Hope this helps.
