When I use the following command, the result is as follows, which xresolution and resolutionunit should I take?
exiftool -a -G1 -s -XResolution -ResolutionUnit 550X120软中远cxT.jpg Picture url:https://newpy-upload-home.oss-cn-shanghai.aliyuncs.com/51694e81cbfb4388b1c398d9497f3589/鸭/550X120软中远cxT.jpg

I would take the one that ExifTool shows without the -a option (ie. IFD0)

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

I'd say it depends upon which one is used by the programs in your workflow.  Photoshop, for example, might prioritize to the ones in the photoshop block.
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype
