# How to read AM.CO.ZA product images

**Updated:** 2026-10-22T16:23 SAST  
**Brand:** always **AM.CO.ZA** (never bare “AM”).  
**Public root:** https://8i.co.za/data/amcoza/images/

## Public paths (Eric lock 2026-10-06)
Product image URLs are **`https://8i.co.za/data/amcoza/images/<category>/<file>.jpg`**.  
Do **not** use a `youtube` segment in public image paths.

## Per-image fields (required)
| Field | Use |
|-------|-----|
| `description` | Full scene for sales/support |
| `keywords` / `tags` | Retrieval keywords |
| `source_link` | Our source when known (YouTube watch URL, Tembe thread, WellDone/catalog URL) |
| `label` | One-line summary |
| `sku_hint` / `identity` | Family + SKU when confirmed |
| `public_url_when_published` | Absolute public JPEG URL |

## Index
Prefer [`INDEX.json`](./INDEX.json). Staging ingest may still live under `images/youtube/` on the build box — that path is **not** the public product URL.
