Embed Google Drive Images in Obsidian with Direct Links — Free Converter Tool

Hi everyone!

I recently came across this thread discussing how Obsidian doesn’t natively render images directly from Google Drive share links.

That inspired me to build a simple web app that converts our Google Drive image share link into a direct image link, just click “Copy for Obsidian” and you can paste inside Obsidian.

Try it here (free & open to public): muchad.com/drive2img/

Just make sure your image in Google Drive is set to “Anyone with the link”.
Paste the shareable link, and the app will give you a direct image URL ready for Obsidian.

Let me know if you find it helpful, or if you have suggestions!
