Hello @Mark  
I managed to transfer an image from YC to Glide with a type ‘image-uri’  
But obviously in the direction Glide (column image) → YC, even with the json type ‘image-uri’ the value received is in the format url.

is it possible to receive the data in the format ‘data: image / jpeg; base64’ ?

Sorry, I don’t understand. Both `image-uri` and `uri` are represented as strings. Are you asking for Glide to send you a `data` URL for images? Is the image a data URL in your table?

Sorry for my English ☹  
I have an Image source column (yes it’s a URL link), I would like to receive in my script the image in the format 'data: image / jpeg; base64 … ’ or dataURL is good
