Correct URL for resize images

Questions
#1

Some of the pictures in our layout need different sizes, so we are trying to ask our writer to use different urls for different sizes e.g. if https://a.storyblok.com/f/94285/2048x1356/eeeb44170c/test.jpg links to the orginal full size, then https://a.storyblok.com/f/94285/700x300/eeeb44170c/test.jpg should link to resized image.

However that doesn’t seem to work; The only things we got it to work is using the img2 subdomain - https://img2.storyblok.com/700x300/f/94285/2048x1356/eeeb44170c/test.jpg ( notice that we have sizes twice in the url)

My question is, is there a better url we should be using? if no, is it safe to continue to use img2.storyblok.com?

Hello Jim,

you can use the image service like explained in this article:

It is ok to use the links which are using the a.storyblok.com/… domain in the content and then changing it in the implementation of your app to img2. instead of using a. and adding parameters like the size in front of the /f/… where needed.

You can find more information about the parameters of the image service here:
