Uploading a photo online can sometimes be a complicated process. If you do not have your own server to host image, here are a few easier options.

Google Drive

If you are able to upload to your images to Google Drive, you can create shareable links that the CSV import tool will process. See the recording below for a demonstration on how to get the link copied to your clipboard:

Dropbox

The CSV import tool can also process Dropbox links. To get a Dropbox link for an image:

  1. Copy your image to the Dropbox folder on your computer

  2. Right click on the image in your Dropbox folder

  3. Click "Copy Dropbox Link". The link is now on your clipboard!
