Bulk Listings using Public Sharepoint Hosted Images Not working

forbiddencardslots — Thu, 03 Apr 2025 11:36:06 GMT

Recently I started using more economic methods to upload trading cards into my inventory.

Part of that process was creating a fully Public Link in order to share that image so that it could be used as the "Item Photo IRL" when Bulk Listing.

The image itself matches the required image criteria for a JPG File and I have confirmed that all security settings in my Sharepoint Folder are public so long as you have the link.

Here is an example image:

https://netorgft16914795.sharepoint.com/:i:/s/ForbiddenCards/EY0nFHnXnM9KpY0fV8KqkR8BrC16fcSXYGgUy6HT3IumjA

However when the upload completes the images do not appear and when I select the place holder image I get the following alert:

It appears you are using images from a self-hosted or 3rd party image provider.

There was a problem uploading your self-hosted image to Ebay, please resubmit your self-hosted images via your 3rd Party Tool or API solution, or contact Customer Support for further help.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

I can't see how uploading to a third party service would be easier than uploading directly to your listings.

I upload directly. Which seems to be eBay's preferred option, from your experience.

The issue is part of the whole process is uploading all the scanned images into Sharepoint where PowerAutomate can strip all the text and create the upload templates for me.

There you go. Automation is not always the optimum solution. Maybe invest some of your time rather than expecting 'AI' or some such to do your work for you. Which doesn't seem to be the case as you spend as much time uploading to your third party platform as you would uploading directly. I am not sure what text would need to be stripped from a pic. Please elucidate
