Questions tagged [flickr]

Use this tag for questions about the public API provided by Flickr, a photo/video sharing website Photos are tagged with metadata, such as tags, geolocation, and Exif data, which can all be accessed through the API. (For non-programming questions, contact Flickr customer support.)

Flickr is an image hosting and video hosting website, web services suite, and online community acquired by Yahoo!. In addition to being a popular website for users to share and embed personal photographs, the service is widely used by bloggers to host images that they embed in blogs and social media.

Almost all of the functionality that runs flickr.com is available through the API. The API is available for non-commercial use by outside developers and for commercial use by prior arrangement.
