XY Background Images not loading

[bowker6789]

Hi all, is there still an issue with the background images for the XY column types?

I am aware of the issue previously but I still cannot get mine to work, I have tried the various ways to produce the direct link to Google Drive but still nothing. 

This was working for me previously but hasn't been working for months now.

I have also read through the other threads but haven't managed to find a solution.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Could you share what expression pattern you are using to access the image file on the Google drive?

Of course please hide or change the real file name or file ID to a pseudo name or ID while sharing the expression.

Thankyou, I have tried a few different attempts based on previous threads but currently this is what I am using:

"http://drive.google.com/uc?id=FILEID"

I have used the above successfully for KML layers but isn't working with the XY background images.

Thankyou

Hi bowker,

can you try using an export link ?  (https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=FILEID)

You can use https://sites.google.com/site/gdocs2direct/ to do so.

Thankyou, I have just tried that but it still doesn't seem to work.

I have tried the following:

"https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=FILEID"

"https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=FILEID"

I have also tried with different images but get the same error.

Appreciate the help.
