FlickrApi

You can rollbackto FlickrApi:9

We support a few of the methods of the [[http://www.flickr.com/services/api/|Flickr API]] to help developers port their existing applications to Jamendo easily.

If you are starting a new project, please consider using our [[HomePage|own APIs]] as they expose data from Jamendo more accurately.

=== Differences with the Flickr API ===

* The endpoint changes from **http://api.flickr.com** to **http://apiflickr.jamendo.com**
* We don't support SOAP yet. Please use XMLRPC or REST. (All the return formats except SOAP are supported)
* API keys/secrets are not needed for read-only access of public data. For these calls we won't check the **api_key** or **api_sig** parameters at all.
* "photos" translate to "album covers" here on Jamendo.
* URLs are built differently from http://www.flickr.com/services/api/misc.urls.html :
** album covers => ...
** album urls => ...

=== Supported methods ===

* flickr.test.echo

More coming soon! Please tell us on the [[http://www.jamendo.com/en/forums/5/|Developer forum]] if you would like some other methods made available.
