How can I download the images from a website to a google drive folder using google apps script?-CodePudding

I would like to download images from the web to a drive folder just by writing the image link. for example I want to download the image is in a drive folder automatically with google apps script.

It would be like a kind of web scraping in which I get the images of said web in a folder.

function myFunction() {
  
    var destination_id = '1cgzNUb88ZHXSQ7iZ0zYigH1f7KD_7geH' //// Id of the folder in which we are going to store the image
    
     var img = ...;
    
    
     var destination = DriveApp.getFolderById(destination_id)
    
     destination.createFile(img)
    }

In that case, I think that the image can be retrieved using UrlFetchApp. So in the case of your script, how about the following modification?

From:

var img = ...;

To:

var img = UrlFetchApp.fetch("https://i.imgur.com/QCFXhpg.jpg").getBlob();

Reference:

fetch(url)
