WalkInto supports creating tours from two types of Panos. (1) Published On Streetview (2) Self Hosted outside Streetview in an external server. When using panorama from external servers please note that images stay in this server and is never copied over to WalkInto. This is the case with Streetview also but more obvious. Let me explain the process for self hosting. We have excellent help articles on this subject that I will link over too.
TL DR; If you do not want to setup and manage your image server you can use our paid image server @https://panohost.in
Please allocate an hour of time to understand these steps properly. Once understood processing a 30 pano shoot and getting it loaded in WalkInto will happen in minutes.
Step 1 : Process a Batch Panos into WalkInto compatible tile format.
You need to download and install WalkInto Tiler for this. This is a desktop software that work on Mac and Windows.
Installing WalkInto Tiler V2.0
Using WalkInto tiler you can process the batch and create an output folder that you can host on any configured web server.

Step 2 : You need to upload the output folder for this processed set of panos to the web server. I
f you are using PanoHost this step is integrated into the tiler itself. Otherwise you may already know how to upload files to your web host. Usually using an FTP client.
Step 3: Import this batch in WalkInto and get cracking with your tour.
This is not the end of this discussion. Do shoot me back every question you may have on this subject. Glad to help.
