Q: Can I have dynamic images and text via the Image Transformation API?

I have the following use case: I have an automation where I create articles with their featured images that I want to turn into social posts.

For this, I'd love to create a number of templates and dynamically pass through the image (ideally via the direct image URL) and the text for one template at a time.

Is this something that I could achieve with MarkupGo? I have to admit that I got inspired by Robolly to do this and it would be amazing if I could build my templates with your LTD instead :)

A: Hi denniskamprad,

Yes, it looks like this is doable with our Magic Template URL feature. Once you’ve created your template, you can generate your images via a single URL by passing the parameters to it—no need to set up code or handle any developer tasks. Here’s the detailed documentation for this:

Thanks for sharing that link, it looks like the Social Media Images is what I'm looking for: "Design a template for social media posts and generate images for each post using Magic URL."

Could you confirm that I can also pass an image as a parameter to my template, next to the different text parameters? (Only as I couldn't find that information)

Hi denniskamprad, as long as your image is a URL, you can pass it to your template by using the URL parameter.

That's great to know - I just got myself three codes to start with :)
