Cloudinary cloudinary = new Cloudinary(Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("CLOUDINARY_URL"));

Tom7254

When I run my app I get the following error.

System.UriFormatException: 'Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed.'

I am running this on a blazor app and I am trying to upload my images.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Hi @Tom7254

Typically the Cloudinary URL would contain the value as shown below. Can you please confirm if you are not using CLOUDINARY_URL as part of the string.

CLOUDINARY_URL=cloudinary://APIKey:APISecret@test

Also, if you are using API call, then you probably have the base address wrong. For example,

POST https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/demo/image/upload

Please see the below article for more information:

Thanks,

Hi Tom,

I've been working on a Blazor/Cloudinary app (with Syncfusion controls) for some time. I put together a quick and dirty demo of using Cloudinary with Blazor that you can find here:

https://github.com/elvogel/EPS.Demos.BlazorCloudinary

It's slightly dated, as it uses .NET 6, but hopefully that should help you get started.
