CMS API for Image Uploads

I think you've got this on deck, but we need to be able to push images into the CMS tool.

    You can now upload images to the CMS through our API. Read our API documentation

    Reiterating Rob Boyle's question—where in the docs is this described?

    Admin - is there a link to the docs for uploading via the API? The link posted above on Jun 14 2018 just sends me to the developers landing page and there is no way to search the docs.

    what type of images are accepted by webflow and which format.

    It's status is shipped. Does that mean it's in development right now?

    Has this feature been implemented in the CMS via a Zap? My use case is as follows:

    I am attempting to collect information and an image from a Typeform and have that both create a CMS item and auto-publish that CMS item to a live site. 

    Using the Typeform to Webflow integration, I can create the CMS item WITH an uploaded image, but that image ends up being a generic Typeform image and not the image the respondent submitted via the form. Strange. 

    When trying to route the Typeform to Google Sheets and then Zap the Sheets data to Webflow with Zapier, the Sheet collects the correct image (as submitted by the respondent), but that image is not uploading to the CMS item when the CMS item is created (even though an image is required to accept the CMS item from Zapier, the CMS item is created with no image. 

    I could really use an assist here my assumption that this functionality existed is the entire reason I have chosen to build and host on Webflow. 

    I'd also be happy to collect the data and image via a Webflow form if that results in creation of a new CMS item that can be automatically published with the image.

    Stoked this feature has shipped!  Anyone know if/how/when we could use Zapier or another tool to automate image uploads to the CMS with this API?

    This is a much needed feature! The cms api has it listed but there is a notice saying it is not yet implemented. Is there an eta? Pretty much any meaningful usage of the cms api would require image uploading.

    Any news on this feature request?

    Yup, support from me too. Seriously beneficial to all Zapier functionality.

    This is huge. It is rare these days that web content does not include images. I am looking at a huge task of migrating hundreds of past blog posts into our Webflow site. I don't know how I will accomplish that task without this capability. Can you update us on the ETA of this critical feature?

    This is so needed, hoping for a quick build!

    Again, voting for this item.  100+ websites in the coming future all updating dynamically via Zapier so my clients can keep their sites updated themselves
