Get asset url

[divdax]

Hey! 👋

// edit
Got it. Missing url in filesystems config. 🙈

---

I've built a custom component and I want to return a collection with a teaser_image that includes the filename but not the URL. However, when I try to fetch an asset in my controller using the following PHP code:

Asset::query()
    ->where('container', 'blog_images')
    ->get()->first()->url; // <- url = null

The URL is coming out as null. I'm wondering how I can get the asset URL. I can't use the Antlers syntax to load an image because I'm using a custom Alpine component that interacts with AJAX requests.

What am I missing?

What does your filesystems config look like (config/filesystems.php)? Which of those filesystems is your blog_images asset container using?

(The url was missing from the filesystem config, so it was being considered a private container)
