Changes in the Freesound API

[frederic font corbera]

Hello everyone,

we have implemented two new interesting features for the API.

First one, we have added a new resource called "geotags" that allows to retrieve lists of sounds geotagged inside a particular geographical zone (defined with a rectangle). Check the documentation for details: 

On the other hand, we have also implemented a method for specifying the sound properties to be returned in any list of sounds. It works as an optional parameter "fields" in any resource that returns a list of sounds (e.g. search, similar sounds, sounds for user...). In this way, we can say fields=id,duration,tags and every sound object of the results list will only be filled with id, duration and tags properties. Check the documentation for more details: 

Be aware that the clients have not been updated yet for this new features!

If you find any problems or bugs post them here!

Thank you!
