Image links broken in Gmail because of google's Image proxy

Question

Image links in gmail are broken because of google\'s Image proxy (news1,news2). I can\'t load my site\'s images in gmail.

Actual image path is: http://sampleimageurl.

Answer 1

I am from Asp.Net world, but I had the same issue.

• Gmail could not cache image while I tested locally
• image's .svg extension was problematic

So, I resolved this issue only by changing the image extension (to .png) and deploying the app to the server (in that case Gmail could access my image for caching and I saw the image in email).
