How to upload images with the Dashboard and know the image URL using cloudinary?

Goal: My goal ist to upload images and a) keep the original name and b) know the exact URL path.

I set the Upload preset to:

Overwrite: true Use filename or externally defined public ID: true Unique filename: false Delivery type: upload Access mode: public

When I upload images using the Dashboard Media Library my images keep the original filename (which is great) but cloudinary adds a unique ID  "v1585290075" into the URL.

https:// strong textres.cloudinary.com/xxxxx/image/upload/ => v1585290075 <= /2020-03-27-ee-apps/xxxxxxx.png

This unique ID prevents me from knowing the exact URL. 

Question: How can I upload images and avoid getting the unique ID in the URL??

The Unique ID you're referring to is a version component that you can utilize to bust the CDN's cache (see here). It is not mandatory and you can safely remove it and the images will still show.
