The module defines 'JSON API remote URL' file field source (based on the Filefield sources 'Remote' plugin). You can setup JSON API host URL, query params to get remote (image/file) URLs in the modal browser. There is an option to set up sorting and searching configuring via JSON API filters and define default alt, title attributes for image fields and description for file fields.

  • Set credentials in settings.php
  • Attache defined JSON API sources to file/image filed via widget settings.
  • You can attache multiple JSON API sources to file/image field.
  • You can set image style to transform remote images before saving it (e.g. to reduce file size).
