Hi, People

I have an app that process images using an external service.  
See the image attached that the return is the image direct.

I am not getting to save this image that return in BD in Bubble.  
Anyone knows how to save the image when the image is the return directly.

See the call is image type and I changed the body (return) to image also.

I thank for any tip

The response is an image and this is automatically saved to Bubble storage. Just set an image field with the API request body  
According tomyour screenshot, settings are fine.

Look the file in file manager to validate saved file from API response
