With the Stripo Plugin, you independently choose where all your images should be stored, and it’s free for all pricing plans.
In the "Image gallery" settings of your Stripo account, you can specify where all your images will be stored. It can be our default Stripo storage or your own one (Amazon, Azure, or any other storage).
Please find the description of all of them below:
• Stripo storage
This option is activated by default when you create a new Plugin application.
Please be advised that there might be a limitation on using Stripo storage depending on the selected Plugin pricing plan.
In order to have full control over the images that your users use in emails, we do recommend that you store them on your own file storage servers.
• Custom AWS S3 bucket
Custom AWS S3 bucket is a Plugin application configuration feature that allows you to easily connect your own Amazon Web Services S3 bucket to our Plugin for storing images.
If you choose this option, you have to fill out the form to establish a connection with your storage. Please take a look at the screenshot above to see the description of the form fields with specifications regarding the information that you will need to enter in each of them.
Please refer to this manual for more details on configuring your AWS S3 storage.
• Azure Blob storage
Azure Blob storage is a plugin application configuration feature that allows you to easily connect your own Azure storage account to our Plugin for storing images.
To do so, you need to generate a connection string in your Azure portal account:
If you choose the "Azure Blob Storage" option, you will have to fill out the form to establish connection with your storage. Please take a look at the screenshot above to see the description of the form fields with specifications regarding what information you will need to enter in them:
• Other storage
This option may be the best choice for you if you’re using another storage type or want to build a more custom and flexible solution to host your images.
We created a way to connect the Plugin to a custom file system provider (via HTTP protocol), allowing you to use the Stripo editor with your own file storage, no matter which technology you use.
If you want to choose "Other storage", make sure your server supports all 4 types of requests with the exact specifications described below — GET LIST OF FILES, UPLOAD FILE TO STORAGE, DELETE/REMOVE FILE FROM STORAGE, GET FILE INFO.
Also, your storage must support chunked-encoding mode.
Please find more details on these parameters and descriptions here.
The Basic Authentication is used to send these requests, so please make sure that you have specified the correct Login, Password, and Base API URL on the Stripo Plugin details page of your Stripo account
