Direct Image URL

Thumbnail Image URL

Notes

  • Make sure your file's visibility in Google Drive is set to "Anyone with the link." This ensures that the image is accessible when generating image URLs.
  • This tool is designed for uploaded images in Google Drive, not for documents or other file types. It may not work as intended for non-image files.
  • Generated image URLs are suitable for embedding in websites, blogs, and applications, or sharing with others to view your images.
  • When using the thumbnail link with adjustable dimensions, ensure that you specify the desired width and height for the thumbnail in the provided input fields.
  • Alt text is an important accessibility feature that should be added to HTML image versions to provide meaningful descriptions for users with disabilities.

How to Get Your Image Sharing URL in Google Drive

Before using the Google Drive Image URL Generator, you need to obtain the sharing URL of your image in Google Drive. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

Step 1: Upload Your Image to Google Drive

If your image is not already on Google Drive, start by uploading it. You can do this by opening Google Drive and clicking the "+ New" button, then selecting "File upload" to choose your image from your device. Once it's uploaded, you can proceed.

Step 2: Share the Image

After your image is in Google Drive, right-click on it and select "Share." A sharing dialog will appear. Click the "Copy link" option.

Step 3: Adjust Sharing Settings (if necessary)

By default, Google Drive provides restricted access to your files. To ensure the image is accessible, click on the sharing link you copied, and set the sharing settings to "Anyone with the link." This will allow anyone with the link to view the image.

Step 4: Copy the URL

Once your sharing settings are adjusted, copy the URL from the address bar of your web browser. This URL is the one you'll use in the Google Drive Image URL Generator to obtain direct image URLs or thumbnail links with adjustable dimensions.

How Does it Work?

The Google Drive Image URL Generator simplifies the process of converting Google Drive links into usable image URLs. Here's how it works:

Direct Image URL

The original Google Drive link, such as:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K6T8kzF--2PTArEFvSyfmHjp9IHHrsLh/view?usp=sharing

Is transformed into a direct image URL:

https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1K6T8kzF--2PTArEFvSyfmHjp9IHHrsLh

Use this direct image URL in your web projects, applications, or wherever you need to display the image.

Thumbnail Link with Adjustable Size

The original Google Drive link can also be converted into a thumbnail link with adjustable dimensions:

For example:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K6T8kzF--2PTArEFvSyfmHjp9IHHrsLh/view?usp=sharing

With a specified width and height, such as 600x600:

https://drive.google.com/thumbnail?id=1K6T8kzF--2PTArEFvSyfmHjp9IHHrsLh&sz=w600-h600

Use this thumbnail link in your websites, blogs, or applications to display a resized version of the image.
