Hello developers,

I wonder if its much work to make the Web API ready for picture upload to firebase storage?

I tried to upload, but I found that the test.jpg, which landed on my firebase storage was not a picture, but a file containing a string, which actually was the path to the picture on the iphone 😄

I know, there are more urgent issues, but maybe this topic will be handled on the long run.

cheers,

recent update fixed image upload (by using cloudinary). Now I’m an enthusiastic user of cloudinary
