Metadata aren't preserved with keep_iptc flag

Hello, I have a problem concerning metadata preservation while doing image manipulation.
I've read the documentation here https://cloudinary.com/documentation/transformation_reference#fl_keep_iptc
But it doesn't seem to work for me.

Here the original image url with its metadata

https://res.cloudinary.com/de6zx6e0v/image/upload/relaxnews/illustration/photo/2021/09/27/000_8ve4vh.44788152234.original.jpg

 

And here is the transformed image url with keep_iptc and keep_attribution flags, as you can see, the metadata are still striped.

  Hi there,

  As mentioned in the note here, the flag won't work with q_auto which is the default setting - you can change it in your upload settings here.

  As a workaround, you can also specify the quality parameter in the URL like https://res.cloudinary.com/de6zx6e0v/image/upload/w_500,q_80/fl_keep_iptc/fl_keep_attribution/relaxnews/illustration/photo/2021/09/27/000_8ve4vh.44788152234.original.jpg and the metadata will be kept.

  Hope that helps.

  Best,

  Loic

  Hi Loic, thank you for this answer, I was pretty sure to tried with specifying the quality, sorry about that.
  
  Have a good day.
