In my existing base all images stay fine but when I made a copy of the base and started replacing images in the Page Designer using url from Copy Image Address menu (the images are residing in the same base) they get displayed but get broken in a short time. 
The new URLs look different from my old base although I am getting the link the same way.


Old base (existing images in Page Designer):

https://dl.airtable.com/.attachmentThumbnails/ef32cff2ffea90eb9be2932d18a0a21b/ddc5a116

‘New base (copy of the old one)  https://v5.airtableusercontent.com/v1/15/15/1678831200000/_Wi_DAKuC8szr6BlzQnjyw/Km2nzwS4ZxXQIDNQTz_3ecuRdUAxDCjWl28ZCMtGHhvZyz7XOtqigDn35qsUiMG2z4BzrsHnrKvhaz9ZFqBkBA/DjivglXPEKVSxzri7OF3EJJ0krPjkte7b-sdv6nzQzs

I also tried to get the URL in my old base (by Copy Image Address) just to see if it changed, and it did, it also looks like this now

What has changed? How do I get a correct URL for an image that will stay in the Page Designer?

Thank you!

There was a change awhile ago that made the attachment URLs expire (documentation here) which is probably causing your issue, so you'll need to host your images elsewhere I'm afraid

I'd suggest opening a support ticket and asking them if they have any workarounds as this is a pretty common issue
