Creating Photo Albums for Events

[Joseph Lippeatt]

Hello.

Plan to do some updates to my Lightroom plugin for Meetup, and was hoping changes to the MU API may have resolved one minor issue. If the event is over and no one has uploaded any images yet, they have to use the web interface instead of my plugin. This is because since no images are uploaded, no album exists yet.

Can the POST /2/photos API automatically create the album if an event ID is included in the request, but not album currently exists?

Thanks!
Joe

hi Joe,

Yes, this is correct.

If you POST /2/photo, providing an event_id and no photo_album_id, the
API will do the right thing and create a photo album if needed or else
post to the existing album if it already exists. You can similarly pass
only an event_id to GET /2/photos and not worry about the photo_album_id
at all.

Hope this helps.
