Posting photo to external blog returns `undefined` for photo URL

[paulrobertlloyd]

When trying to post an image, the image URL is not present in the data sent to the Micropub server.

Steps to reproduce:

• Start a new post
• Add an image – this gets uploaded using the media endpoint
• Add some post text
• Publish the post

With Indiekit, this results in the following post file being created:

---
date: 2023-06-30T22:19:40.234+01:00
photo:
  - url: undefined
    alt: Alt 1
---

Test post 1

It would seem that Micro.blog is unable to get the url returned by the media endpoint, and/or fails to add this to the submitted post data.

Notes:

• I have tested the same flow using Quill, and it works as expected
• The ‘Uploads’ sheet shows previously uploaded images

It appears this is a result of the app expecting the url to be in the response body.

In the previous version of the iOS client, the uploaded image’s URL was pulled from the location header which matches the Micropub recommendation for the Media Endpoint response.

HTTP/1.1 201 Created

Thanks, we can fix this for the next version.

Got a fix for this and will be available in the 3.2 release on iOS and 1.9 on Android.
