Bug description
Fetching a Markdown version of a published page like this one:
https://gitbook.com/docs/create-content/blocks/insert-images.md
returns embedded images like this
<img src="/files/WNXq6RcD2e4WTRcZEz4f" alt="">These /files/ URLs are however invalid and are not serving the desired image.
How to reproduce
- Fetch a page in Markdown format
- Fetch embedded images
- Get a 404
