I can see the images normally, which one of the images don’t load?

For example, under the choice “Team 1 - Round 1 - Turn 1”, images 1, 6, 8 & 10 do not load in any device I have tried.

Thanks for your response!

Where do you store the images?

Google Drive

Cause it was easier to automate the link extraction compared to Dropbox

In the builder the load correctly

Storing files in Google drive for use in the app has been hit or miss lately. I see the same missing images. I would just verify the link is correct and isn’t https instead of http. I would consider storage through Glide. You can can simply drag and drop the image into the instead portion of the components and it will upload and update the sheet with the url.

Jeff, thanks for your reply.

I will check the workarounds and follow back.

Do you think that if I replace the links for the missing images only, it won’t fail later?

I can’t guarantee that. You can try replacing just the broken ones and see what happens.

@SpyrosTsouk

Please do not use Google Drive to host images if you can help it. This is a Google Drive problem: they aggressively begin blocking entire devices they believe to be “abusive”, which they define as making only so many requests per second. You will definitely become blocked by Google Drive at 1200 images. Please consider directly re-uploading your images through Glide, we don’t impose such limits.

@Daniel_Sweet @JackVaughan you should update your documentation according to that

Your documentation says:

> Two of the easiest ways to host your own files online are with Google Drive & Dropbox.

> **[Glide Docs](https://www.glideapps.com/docs)**
>
> Welcome to Glide Docs, a steadily growing collection of articles and videos on how to use Glide. We can’t wait to see what you build!

Hello Team,

Thanks for your responses.

I tried the workarounds but didn’t work. I’ll try with Dropbox, have any similar issues been faced?

As for the Glide solution, is there a way to do it for 1,200 files, while we also extract the name of the file? Doing it manually is very risky.

Thanks a lot!

@SpyrosTsouk you could consider moving to Cloudinary. It is actually a bit easier when you can control the filenames yourself instead of getting a google-id url.
