@DigitalMakerCIC I had a similar requirement where I needed to be able to pass a basic authorization header for my image URL.

Is the format of the headers parameter expecting something like the following?

HEADERS = {"Authorization":"Basic <some token>"}

And do you know if these headers are also used when the image formatter service ultimately calls the image URL to fetch the image and then process it?

Instead of using a data source and image JSON path, I'm using the newer image_url_path property for the image URL.

An update to the example code would be appreciated.
