How do I export images?

Image export lets Web Scraper Cloud download image files returned by Image selectors and save them to supported cloud storage.

Image export is available on the Scale plan and requires at least one Image selector in the sitemap.

Supported destinations

• Amazon S3
• Google Cloud Storage
• Microsoft Azure Blob Storage

Configure image export

1. Make sure the sitemap contains a working Image selector.
2. Configure Data Export to a supported cloud-storage destination.
3. Open the sitemap's Image export tab.
4. Enable Image export.
5. Run a job and verify both the exported dataset and image files.

Where are the images stored?

Images are stored in an images  subfolder under the configured export path.

The exported dataset keeps the original image URL and adds a corresponding _stored_filename  field so the downloaded file can be matched back to the record.

If no image files are exported

Check that:

• Image export is enabled.
• The selected Data Export destination supports image storage.
• The sitemap contains an Image selector.
• The Image selector actually returns image URLs during the job.

If the Image export tab is not visible, confirm that the account is on the Scale plan and the sitemap contains an Image selector.

See the Image export documentation for more information.
