HEIC to JPG conversion

[Loloy_Parker]

Hi, is there way to convert an HEIC file to JPG without sending it to an external API for conversion?

In my workflow I receive image URLs then I would like to have it analyzed by OpenAI or Gemini node. However both nodes do not accept HEIC.

Thanks in advance!

If you’re self-hosting, you can install a file converter in your system and call it using the Execute Command node. With this setup you would be able to interact with local files and upload the converted file back to OpenAI

Thank you, Solomon! I am new to this and forgot to add that I am using N8N cloud.

You can try the Edit Image node. If it doesn’t work, you’ll have to use an external service.
