MATLAB: Can we upload image to Thingspeak

imageraspberry piThingSpeak

Current situation:
I have saved my processed image in raspberry pi. I would like to upload the image to Thingspeak. However, I came across some posts saying that we cant upload image to Thingspeak. I wish to view my image at Thingspeak and also at Thingview(mobile app).
Questions:
1) Can we upload image to Thingspeak?
2) Or can i upload the image to Google Drive then link it back to Thingspeak ?
3) If no, any way to do it?
This is the example that show the image, but I not sure how it does.

At present, it is not easy to upload images to ThingSpeak. You could break it up into multiple fields and feeds, but it would require a lot of code and probably small images.
I suspect you can use google drive, though I haven't yet. The plant channel you linked uses a static image in the MathWorks documentation.
I used dropbox for the image on this channel. Here is the MATLAB visualization code. If you are using Dropbox, the key part is the dl=1 at the end of the URL.
myFig=figure( 'Position',[50 10 100 1000]);
bob=imread('https://www.dropbox.com/s/xxxxxxxxxxx/LoraBox_in_Flowers.jpg?dl=1');
myFig=imshow(bob);
