URL from TradingView not pulling image ?


Objective; trying to post a twitter post with a set message including a picture (obtained from the URL bellow) from a webhook (also from tradingview)

Error: The app returned "media type unrecognized.".

URL Image Link; https://uk.tradingview.com/chart/xwfHzgQk/

 

Does anyone have a solution or know what could be causing this?

Hi @dimadue!

@Saastronomical is correct that the link you provided above is not a direct link to an image. In addition to the option that he mentioned, you can also try using CloudConvert (which integrates with Zapier) and their Capture a Website action: https://zapier.com/apps/cloudconvert/integrations#triggers-and-actions. Hope that helps!

Hey, unfortunately, that’s not a picture, it’s a link to a website. 

 

I’d recommend first taking a screen-capture of a website, with an API service like https://www.screenshotmachine.com/ and using the return value in your tweet
