New pro 23 user here.  
Been looking for ways to upload images from my Ring doorbell to the cloud - or, if that won’t work a local NAS - whenever triggered by a flow.

Can this be done? How, if so? Any advice is welcome.

I am not sure how that is relevant?  
I am looking to take an image from a given source (example given: Ring) and upload it to a cloud or NAS

You’re welcome.  
You mentioned Ring specifically, not as example.

That’s why I adviced to ask your Q in the dedicated [Ring app topic](https://community.homey.app/t/ring-doorbell-and-camera-support-for-homey/76364)

When you just want to upload ‘an image’ from Homey to a NAS, check out the neat [FTP Client app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-ftp-client-control-ftp-servers-through-a-directory-based-ui-in-the-homey-app-or-web-app/70876)  
And ‘The Cloud’ is just a (ftp) server as well, isn’t it?

Ah, sorry, should have worded myself differently.  
Thanks, I will check out the FTP Client app.
