Cloudimage is designed for fast and low-code implementation, often completed in minutes to a few hours, depending on complexity. Here’s the step-by-step process:
Create an Account & Get Token
Sign up on Cloudimage.io and obtain your customer token, which is required for all integrations.
Configure Origin Storage
Define where Cloudimage will fetch original assets (your server, AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob, or Scaleflex’s built-in storage). This is done in the Library Settings.
CMS/E-commerce Plugins: Use ready-made plugins for WordPress, Magento, Shopify, etc.
Apply Transformations
Use URL parameters or the Asset Variation Builder to set resizing, cropping, watermarking, and format conversion rules.
Set Up Caching & CDN
Configure caching intervals and invalidation settings. Cloudimage automatically caches optimized assets at CDN edges for fast delivery.
Test & Validate
Verify that images load via Cloudimage CDN and transformations apply correctly. Flush caches if needed.
Typical Timeframe:
Cloudimage offers extensive customization options to adapt to different workflows and branding requirements:
Custom CNAME & SSL
Replace default Cloudimage URLs with your own branded domain for white-label delivery. Available from Grow plan upward.
Multi-Tenancy Support
Manage multiple projects or brands under one account with separate tokens and settings. Ideal for agencies and enterprises.
Flexible Storage Options
Use Scaleflex’s built-in S3 storage or integrate external storage like AWS S3, Google Cloud, Azure Blob, or any HTTP-based origin.
Custom Image Transformations
Apply unlimited transformations via URL parameters or create reusable presets with the Asset Variation Builder. Includes advanced operations like smart cropping, face detection, and watermarking.
AI Features for SEO & Automation
Auto-generate alt text, apply AI-based tagging, and remove backgrounds for product images. These features can be toggled or combined with manual workflows.
Bring Your Own CDN
Attach Cloudimage to your existing CDN for compliance or performance needs, or use its multi-CDN routing for global coverage.
Integration Flexibility
Official plugins for WordPress, Magento, Shopify, and connectors for headless CMS (Contentful, Strapi, Nuxt Image) ensure seamless adoption.
Security & Access Control
Features like origin whitelisting, signed URLs, and token-based authentication allow strict control over asset delivery.
