Hello friends, today we are going to discuss Upload Image by HTTP Callout in LWC Salesforce. We will upload the images to the Imgur server by API request in LWC without APEX Call. We use the FETCH method to get and delete the images from the Imgur. We upload the files by XMLHttpRequest so we can track them by the progress bar.

Also, check this: Make HTTP Callout Request in LWC Salesforce

Key Highlights :

  1. Call HTTP Callout via LWC.
  2. Without the use of Apex Class.
  3. Fetch the all files
  4. Delete the Image file
  5. Upload the image with the progress bar.
  6. Authorisation in LWC

Process & Code :

Step 1: Create Account in the Imgur.

Step 2: Create App by clicking this Link and chose without Callback URL. After creating App you will get the Client Id and Client Secret. Put this in a safe place for our next step Authorization.

Create App in Imgur

Step 3: Authorized and get Access Token by the below link , in the below link put your Client Id and run this link in the browser. You will get the redirect URL with Access Token and other info. Store the Access token for further use.

https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&response_type=token&state=test

Redirect URL: https://example.com/oauthcallback#access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN&token_type=Bearer&expires_in=3600

Step 4: Set up the CSP Trusted Sites of this Endpoint URL GO Setup CSP Trusted Sites > Click New Trusted Site and create new records by filling in Endpoint and name. EndPoint ==> https://api.imgur.com

Step 5: Now We create the LWC component. Here I create two cards, in one card I upload the files, and on the other one display and delete the images.
