I am trying to use the Custom Channel function within Loomly to post to BlueSky. Above is how I have it set up, but when I try to test it I get “invalid URL.” then I skip the test and try to run it and I get invalid URL again, but when I copy and paste the url from the “data in” part of the run view, it is a functioning url.

I know the loomly part is set up fine, because it’ll post something text-only. It only gives me a hard time when there is a photo attached to the post.

Hi ​@comms19038,

 

Welcome to the Community.

 

The "invalid URL" error between Loomly and BlueSky may stem from improperly formatted or inaccessible image URLs. Ensure the URL starts with "http://" or "https://," ends with an image extension like ".jpg" or ".png," and loads directly in a browser. Use direct image URLs, not links to webpages or redirects, and verify that privacy settings allow public access. If issues persist, contact Loomly support for assistance.

 

I hope this information helps. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance.
