Trying to get an image using Crunchbase's API

I am using Crunchbase’s API and I am trying to grab the image file but with no luck.

Here is the link to the image I am trying to pull: http://public.crunchbase.com/t_api_images/v1443020871/dj8rndg9wkqkpgvplvzi

Here is my dynamic code:

I’ve used APIs in the past and I was always able to find a workaround for pulling the image file and I am hoping that there is one here!

Could you display the Current cell's Search for Entity entitie's identifier image_id and confirm it’s rendering dj8rndg9wkqkpgvplvzi as a string? :blush:

here it is (I did see that I added the v…/ and have since removed it but it is still not working)

new code:

Here’s a link to the image: http://public.crunchbase.com/t_api_images/v1441018399/x4jtohcctziw0ovyitfu.png

Is this what you meant?

You’re missing part of the url there, see? /v144… etc.

That part of the url is drawn from the API so I am not including it.

I guess I don’t really understand this part of the api, for some companies, the v12344 appears and for others it does not lmao

I’m pretty sure you misunderstand how this works.

If you want a company logo API that’s free for certain types of use see:

Why do you say that? When I call the initialize the API in the connector, for some companies the v1234 appears and for others it doesn’t…


This is the browser output ^

So, I know nothing of the crunchbase API, except that I know you need access to it. If you have access to it, you get a company’s logo DYNAMICALLY… meaning that you call the API and the API returns to you a response object that includes the company logo in some graphic format that you can display. You’re barking up the wrong tree here if you are calling the API at some time in the past and saving the image returned.

In such a case, just save the image to your database (essentially stealing it from crunchbase).

The intended use for APIs like this is to call the API and consume what it returns, in real time. So the image URL in your image element should be a “use as data” expression for the Bubble API connector where you’ve configured an API call to Crunchbase.

Get it?

I’m not sure why you’re assuming I’m saving the image somewhere in the past… Completely confused as to where you got that information, I am calling the information in real time, I am able to call the company information (name, description, etc.) but the image won’t load which is what my question is regarding… :confused:

Also, I am loading the image dynamically as you can see in the images… Very confused as to what you’re going on about 🤷

You’re either getting images from an API or not. Which is it?
