How to Bulk Download Images from Marketing Cloud

To extract images in bulk from Marketing Cloud, Tectonic would recommend utilizing the REST API asset query feature, specifically targeting image asset types in Content Builder. However, it’s important to note that this method retrieves only the URLs of the images, not the images themselves.

Here’s a step-by-step approach:

  1. Utilize the REST API asset query to pull image URLs from Content Builder.
  2. Use a third-party service to parse through the returned JSON and download the images from the URLs. If you lack such a tool, a more manual process is required.
  3. Copy the JSON returned by the REST API.
  4. Use a JSON-to-CSV converter to easily convert the JSON into a CSV format, allowing you to copy and paste all the image URLs.
  5. Copy all the URLs and then utilize a bulk downloader to download the images based on the URL list you gathered.

While there may be alternative solutions available, this method has proven to be the most effective for handling bulk image downloads.
