Suddenly bumping into problems with Imgur uploads using a shortcut.

Netherlands, 21st of may, 2024

I have a shortcut built for uploading to imgur. It works as follows (see also the accompanying routine in the picture).

I go into photo's

I select a picture and then I push the share button, select Image upload to Imgur, and then it was flawlessly uploaded to imgur and returned me back the URL of the picture, which I then easily could paste into a post on bulletin boards or virtually anywhere.


But... since about a week suddenly the routine does not work anymore, which is utterly inconvenient.

The routine now says in step 4: "Upload converted Image" :

The data couldn't be read because it isn't in the correct format. (which of course it really, is... it is really .jpg)

Nothing has changed within Apple, as far as I know, so I fear there have been changes at Imgur. I guess in the API.


Is there anyone who knows more about this? Have been searching all over the internet already, but cannot find any clue.

Perhaps someone has a work-around?


Have done all updates to the Imgur app.

Have made a few test routines, they all break in the same upload-step, on all my platforms, being 2 iPads and iPhone.
