Enter code here`Please follow below steps:-

  1. Create one "imgs2.csv" with the column name of "IMAGE" (assign all external images URLs) put the same on Magento root directory.

  2. Create one new directory "uploads" on Magento root directory.

  3. Create a file with name "download_img.php" on Magento root directory and following code in the same file, after you hit the same file on website URLs for example http://www.example.com/download_img.php 

    $csv = array_map('str_getcsv', file($file));
//print_r($csv);
array_walk($csv, function(&$a) use ($csv) {
  $a = array_combine($csv[0], $a);
});
array_shift($csv); # remove column header
//print_r($csv);


foreach($csv as $key=>$img){
    //echo $img['IMAGE'];
     $import_location = 'uploads';
    $file_target = $import_location."/".basename($img['IMAGE']);

    $image = file_get_contents($img['IMAGE']);
file_put_contents($file_target,$image);  

    /* if(!empty($img)){
        $my_image = file_get_contents($img);
        file_get_contents(filename)

        $filename = $data[0] . ".jpg";
         echo $filename. "\n";
        if(!file_exists($filename))
            {
                $my_file = fopen($filename,'w+');
                file_put_contents($filename, $my_image);
                echo $filename . "\n";

            }
    }
        $image = "/uploads/" . $filename;
        echo $image . "\n"; */
}
