Going from photo data to the Flickr API

One useful aspect of this property is that a photo ID can be passed directly to methods in the Flickr API; for example flickr.photos.getInfo – you don’t need to extract the photo ID from the different forms of Flickr URL that are floating around.

This is what that looks like (with a Flickr API key):

curl 'https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.getInfo&photo_id=[PHOTO_ID]&api_key=[API_KEY]'
