WCH supports the concepts of image profiles defining a set of renditions for images. The renditions define image aspects like cropping and resizing. The actual Image transformation is driven via well-known Image URL parameters consumed and processed by the Akamai edge servers. Corresponding image URLs are generated automatically for image elements that reference image assets in combination with a corresponding image profile/rendition. Today, It is not possible to create such URL without defining corresponding image elements.

This feature adds the following: Image assets can be addressed via URLs that identify a specific rendition defined in a specific image profile (by introducing new URL query params). The images served by those URLs will have the corresponding Akamai image transformations applied
