How to connect flickr photostream to app

Hi. New to all this. How do I connect a flickr photostream to an app? I'm sure it's really obvious , but I'm missing it somehow. Thanks John

I can't say 'exactly' how, but there is always good information at the source... in this case Flickr. http://www.flickr.com/services/api/ the API looks fairly well documented. You may end up having to modify something on the BT end to get it all connected. And keep notes; things that work in iOS won't necessarily translate 'exactly' to Android, but usually the 'concepts' remain the same. Good Luck! Cheers! -- Smug

Hi, Like so: http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photosets.getPhotos&api_key=1234&photoset_id=72157630066772041&format=json The photoset is called with this url. The photoset has an id (72157630066772041). Also replace 1234 with your own api key. Let me know how it worked! Cheers, -Pancho

Pancho, I was working on a similar problem and saw your post how to pull images from flickr. This does work with a sample set that I just created on flickr. Thanks!
