I want to replace an image from a Google Doc Template x another one that is in my airtable database. How can this be done?
You need to supply Google Docs module with a publicly-accessible URL of the photo.
If I recall, Airtable’s attachments links now expire so you’d need to upload the image to a service that will give you a public link to the photo which won’t expire.
I think some people have been using Google Drive for this.
Upload the file to Google Drive, get a public link, then supply that link as the URL parameter for the image.
You may also try using Dropbox.
Also, there’s Amazon AWS S3 storage.
There are quite a few options.

Sounds like Web Content Link may not work for this purpose because that links leads to a webpage, not a file. If you visit that in a web browser you’ll be forwarded to a download page.
You can try with another service.
