You need to ensure the image URLs you are adding into your CSV are public URLs. You can create a public URL for images in the following ways: ### 1. Pull an image URL from your website If you are hosting a web page, you can add your images there and create your public URLs from the host. ### 2. **Create a public URL using Dropbox** - Upload your images from your computer to your Dropbox - As you upload your images to Dropbox, hover over your image and click on the 'Share' button. - A pop-up window will appear where you need to click on the 'Create a link' button. ![csvimage1.png](https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/docs/assets/5b25b50d2c7d3a0fa9a312a1/images/5b890a5c0428631d7a8a95a5/img-4084-1535707579-1558153957.png) - Click on the 'Copy link' button and your link will be copied to the clipboard. ![csvimage2.png](https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/docs/assets/5b25b50d2c7d3a0fa9a312a1/images/5b890a5c2c7d3a03f89e538a/img-4084-1535707580-624408537.png) - Open a new tab and paste the copied link there. You'll see the parameter 'dl=0' at the end of the link. Now you need to make sure you add a parameter '&raw=1' after 'dl=0' to make the URL a public URL. For e.g. This is how your link looks when pasted into a new tab:  [https://www.dropbox.com/s/sn8u7kt9ughzq7k/14713006\_574837712717387\_4421355489031779756\_o.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/sn8u7kt9ughzq7k/14713006_574837712717387_4421355489031779756_o.png?dl=0) You need to make it look like this: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/sn8u7kt9ughzq7k/14713006\_574837712717387\_4421355489031779756\_o.png?dl=0&raw=1](https://www.dropbox.com/s/sn8u7kt9ughzq7k/14713006_574837712717387_4421355489031779756_o.png?dl=0&raw=1) - Now, you can add this public URL in the second column of your CSV. **Note:** If there are no parameters (like 'dl=0' or 'dl=1') at end of your image URL, then add the parameter '&raw=1' ### 3. **Create a Public URL using Google Drive** - Upload an image from your computer to your Google Drive account. - As you upload your image to Google Drive, hover over your image and Right-click on it.
