Representative actions

  • Get Album

    Retrieves detailed information about a SmugMug album using its album key. Returns album settings, metadata, image count, and links to related resources like images and user info. Use this to get comprehensive details about a specific album/gallery.

  • Get Album Highlight Image

  • Get Album Image

    Get an image within a specific album context as an AlbumImage relationship object. Returns detailed information about the image including metadata, dimensions, URLs, and relationships. Use this when you need to retrieve a specific image from an album with full album context.

  • Get Album Images

    Tool to retrieve all images in a SmugMug album as AlbumImage relationship objects. Use this action when you need to list or access images within a specific album. An AlbumImage represents the relationship between an album and an image, which is useful because the same image may appear in multiple albums. The response includes image metadata, URIs for different sizes, and pagination support for large albums. Returns AlbumImage objects with fields like ImageKey, Title, Caption, WebUri, ArchivedUri, and nested Uris for accessing related resources (ImageSizes, LargestImage, etc.).

  • Get Folder Albums

    Tool to retrieve albums from a specific folder in a SmugMug user's account by nickname and folder path. Use when you need to list albums in a folder using the user's nickname and folder path rather than NodeID. This is particularly useful when you know the folder structure but don't have the NodeID.
