hi @Juliusforster

 ![0ee8cf2987d9a7bcada61b827b8662e1aa8cf796_2_1380x712](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/6/4/64e8865563acec2a95958435a8ee72c9a5c39ab4.png)

I am directly uploading image from [https://imgur.com/](https://imgur.com/) for last few months.  
Today (17-01-2025) I am getting **“Only photo or video can be accepted as media type. (9004, OAuthException)”** this error.

Yesterday I uploaded same way and the module was running correctly. Today only I am getting this error.

Can you please help me find a solution to this? Thanks.

Hello @Route_One_Football,  
Can you please first cross-check this related topic on the Community?

Also check these limitations, If you hit any.

I hope this helps.
