¶ Image Downloader
Category: 🎨 Visual
¶ Description
Downloads an image from a URL, an Asset ID, or a Player ID and applies it to a connected Image block.
Connect an Image block to the Target tag input. Provide the URL or ID in the text input. The download happens automatically when the text changes, unless a Jolt is connected to the manual trigger input, in which case it will only download upon receiving a jolt. A jolt is output when the download completes successfully.
