When to use

Enable the setting for regular profiles, where the provider sends the same images every day.

How to set up

  1. Open Image Settings.
  2. Turn on "Don't upload file if there are no changes".
  3. Make sure the source allows you to determine whether the file is immutable.
  4. Do not change processing parameters unless necessary: format, size and watermark affect the result.
  5. Test the relaunch on a small selection of products.

What will happen

If the file and settings have not changed, the service will take the finished result instead of a new download.

What is important to remember

  • If the provider replaced the image using the same link, the service should see the content change.
  • Changing the watermark or size requires new processing.
