Last updated: May 14, 2020
hey guys! what’s the best way to get the image url for an image field inside of the Studio? The use case is display the document image for SEO preview in the split preview panel.

asset.url
  ?

unfortunately, it’s
undefined
😞
I named the image
image
in my document, and this is what I get:

{
  asset: {
    _ref: 'image-[hash]-[dimension]-png',
    type: 'reference'
  },
  _type: 'image'
}

image.url
is
undefined
and
image.asset.url
is also
undefined

Can you share the document schema?

And when you write

Not really sure. what about
seo.image._ref
as weird as that seems?
May 14, 2020, 4:49 AM
_ref
is on
seo.image
and it’s not a filename. it looks like this “image-aecfca21db0ccac083c7df9bad5c6b057d29d97a-3072x1716-png”

You can use the
@sanity/image-url
module: https://github.com/sanity-io/image-url
May 14, 2020, 5:14 AM
urlFor(seo.image).toString()

! follow-up question, how do I get the current dataset and projectId from inside the Studio to initiate the sanity client?
May 14, 2020, 5:15 AM
You can get the preconfigured client by importing it through
import client from 'part:@sanity/base/client'
