I have couple thousand images in an image url column, is there a way to convert them into image attachments without needing to manually download / upload thousands of images?
Yes!
I covered it here
Hey there! Documint pack creator here
You actually don’t need to even use or create a pack to ingest a URL and store it locally in Coda.
As long as you have the hosted image url you can simply push it into an an image/file type column and Coda will automatically fetch the image, host it on their servers, thus storing it locally in a table
For example, if you catch a webhook with an image URL in a payload and pass its results to a file type or image column, Coda will do all the work for you.

Essentially use a modifyRows() call to don’t shove those urls into a file/image column
