Upload via custom path

You can use a custom ID path to upload an image instead of the path automatically generated by Cloudflare Images’ Universal Unique Identifier (UUID).

Custom paths support:

Make a POST request using the example below as reference. You can use custom ID paths when you upload via a URL or with a direct file upload.

Terminal window
curl --request POST https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/images/v1 \
--header "Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>" \
--form 'url=https://<REMOTE_PATH_TO_IMAGE>' \
--form 'id=<PATH_TO_YOUR_IMAGE>'

After successfully uploading the image, you will receive a response similar to the example below.

{
"result": {
"id": "<PATH_TO_YOUR_IMAGE>",
"filename": "<YOUR_IMAGE>",
"uploaded": "2022-04-20T09:51:09.559Z",
"requireSignedURLs": false,
"variants": ["https://imagedelivery.net/Vi7wi5KSItxGFsWRG2Us6Q/<PATH_TO_YOUR_IMAGE>/public"]
},
"result_info": null,
"success": true,
"errors": [],
"messages": []
}
