What is the Snaggr API?

The Snaggr API allows 3rd-party developers to build applications that do everything Snaggr itself can do. It is a RESTful API which provides the ability to search multiple sources for image results from a single request.

How Does it Work?

Think of Snaggr as an image search aggregator. This means if you want to search for pictures of cats, you don't have to go to a handful of separate sites. Just ask Snaggr and it'll fetch all the results from the most popular sites for you.

For you technical types who like to look at pictures, consider this simple flowchart:

In order to interact with the Snaggr API, you first need to apply for an API access key.
