Hi! I’ve been using Cloudinary for a while, mostly with uploaded images. I then have been working on a project that almost exclusively uses imaged stored on other sites. This means I need to use ‘fetch’ instead of ‘upload’. All good… but for some reason things kept breaking!! I finally figured out what the issue was. There is a security setting in Cloudinary that disables Fetch. For odd reasons, it can get switched on. By changing my settings, all is working now. Sharing in case anyone else has experienced the problem. > **[Fetch does not work with my account](https://support.cloudinary.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360007724299-Fetch-does-not-work-with-my-account)** > > Hello, I don't get why /fetch work with the demo account and not mine.

I could be interested in more images storage, how do you use cloudinary? ---

I have been using it to store some images (not many, mostly me practising) but mainly for image Transformations. For instance I have a markdown table which contains social media icons (like FB, etc) which are: - colored if there is a value (FB URL exists) otherwise greyed out - and incorporates the URL as a link Example attached - hope this gives you an idea of what you could do. ![Screenshot 2021-02-27 at 18.02.35](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/5/35f11b9afa1d0a846cc4adeabc69382793a6e8c0.png) ---

Ok, nice, that’s an horizontal list, right? Btw, you could just make the icon not visible if the relative social is not present, no? ---

I actually made it as a markdown table (an example for my data below) - this gives me a lot of control ---- I have a version of this which allows the user to set their fav communication methods - then it would add a nice Star over the icon - and I wanted consistency to show all these options exist, nudging people into editing their profile and adding more options | [![Email](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_mail-icon\_456095\_vwg1zp.png)](mailto:projectneuland@gmail.com?Subject=Hi%20-%20A%20Connection%20via%20Vork) | ![Spacer](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/c\_crop,w\_5/v1582665410/markup\_blank\_raikp2.png) | [![Twitter](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_twitter\_circle\_color\_107170\_npmnuk.png)](https://twitter.com/mark\_turrell) | ![Spacer](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/c\_crop,w\_5/v1582665410/markup\_blank\_raikp2.png) | [![Linkedin](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_linkedin\_circle\_color\_107178\_dq46bk.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/in/markturrell/) | ![Spacer](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/c\_crop,w\_5/v1582665410/markup\_blank\_raikp2.png) | [![Whatsapp](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_whatsapp\_287520\_lzypvk.png)](https://wa.me/4916096297622) | ![Spacer](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/c\_crop,w\_5/v1582665410/markup\_blank\_raikp2.png) | [![Telegram](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_social-07\_3146784\_j565sx.png)](https://t.me/markturrell) | ![Spacer](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/c\_crop,w\_5/v1582665410/markup\_blank\_raikp2.png) | [![Instagram](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_Instagram\_xvtdha.png)](https://www.instagram.com/markturrell) | ![Spacer](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/c\_crop,w\_5/v1582665410/markup\_blank\_raikp2.png) | [![Facebook](https://res.cloudinary.com/di8rh54am/image/upload/w\_35/iconfinder\_3\_940994\_b1kgz0.png)](https://www.facebook.com/markturrell) | |-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-| ---

In Google Sheets I have a tab for ‘social markup’. At the top I set up the images I will use, resizing, and how to grey out if the data is not there. Then I make sure there is a nice image for each option. Then I pull in the header from the Users sheet, and go through column by column to see if: - there is data or not (will pick the colored or grey icon) Then the markdown section for each column creates the image + URL (or email header) for each option And finally in column B the ‘Table Images’ pulls it all in with a nice =(A1 & …) etc to make the table. Tada! And bug fixing afterwards to make sure it works. And then reuse across my projects to save me time 🙂 ![Screenshot 2021-02-27 at 22.15.36](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/4/0411fbd9b02a6008595b846831ca2039faa8ad40.png) ---

I did something like that for a social network list here, if you want an alternative you can check the link below. > [@Dynamically access social links in Glide - using new actions](https://community.glideapps.com/t/dynamically-access-social-links-in-glide-using-new-actions/19089/): > > Probably you have wanted to build a dynamic list of social links: Email, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. before but there’s no straightforward way to do it without costing rows. Now with the actions Glide introduced, I achieved the thing above just this week with 4 rows, and think this can be helpful for people so I would share this.
