Topic: Paste clipboard image into dropzone and upload

I search the forum and someone asked the same question in 2016.  However, it seems I can't find a way to do it still.  Basically, I would like to upload an image in the clipboard which I got it from screenshot utility, and would like to upload the clipboard to imgur. I wonder if there is anyway to do it?  Thanks.

Hi there,

The way to do this would be with the new Shortcuts integration in Dropzone. Take a look at this blog post/video for details:

I just tried it, the video is required you to first save the screenshot to disk before uploading.  What I would like is to upload the image in clipboard after "copy", and then upload the image to imgur.

Yep you can do that, just replace the 'Take Screenshot' action in the shortcuts workflow with a 'Get Clipboard' action instead and use this as the magic variable input for the save file step. You have to save to disk first to make this work - But you can just use a temporary folder for that.

Here's how to setup the Shortcut:
