Hi, I want to store in DO images, that are firstly processed by optimization service. Steps: user chooses to upload an image via browser we’re sending the file to the 3rd party image optimizer (ImOpt) when file is process by ImOpt, it calls our endpoint with a json containing a url to optimized file our service now generates pre-signed url and uploads the optimized file to DO. Is it possible to upload a file with presigned-url by sending just a url to the file instead of sending actual file in the request body? If not, is there any other method to upload a file from another location (having only the fileurl)?
