System Information
  • Strapi Version: 4.0.6
  • Operating System: Windows 10
  • Database: POSTGRES
  • Node Version: 16.13.2

Hi,
I connected Strapi with cloudinary following these instructions: @strapi/provider-upload-cloudinary

The upload is working great in local. But as soon as I push it to heroku, I get an “error 500” on upload (see image below)

        config: {
        provider: 'cloudinary',
        providerOptions: {
            cloud_name: env('CLOUDINARY_NAME'),
            api_key: env('CLOUDINARY_KEY'),
            api_secret: env('CLOUDINARY_SECRET'),

        },
        },

Thank you in advance and have a good day :smiley:

Did you forget to set environment variables in Heroku?

Hi @Diop_Nikuze ,

Not sure if you have figured this out but to fix this error, head over to your Heroku dashboard, click on the project and then under settings you will see a section called Config Vars. Add your CLOUDINARY_KEY, CLOUDINARY_NAME and CLOUDINARY_SECRET there. This should fix the problem.
