> **For coding agents and LLMs:** This is one Social Fetch marketing page (markdown export). For API orientation start with [`/llms.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms.txt); for auth and crawl rules use [`/agents.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/agents.txt); for every operation use [`/llms-endpoints.txt`](https://www.socialfetch.dev/llms-endpoints.txt). ## This page - **On-site (HTML):** - **Markdown (.mdx) URL:** --- # Flickr Explore API A day of Explore, with the date you asked for and a page of full photo records. `GET /v1/flickr/explore` returns `data.date` and a page of `data.photos` from Explore. Pass `date` as `YYYY-MM-DD` for a past day, or leave it out for the latest published day (yesterday UTC, or the day before while yesterday's list is not out yet; `data.date` says which). Each row is a full photo record with owner, sizes, counts, dates and tags. The route exposes about 500 photos for a day, so page through with `limit` and `page.nextCursor` until `page.hasMore` is false. A date before Explore has data returns `lookupStatus: found` with an empty list; an impossible date is a 400. ## Request - **Endpoint:** `GET /v1/flickr/explore` - **Credits:** 1 credit Failed requests are free - **Input:** by date - **Full reference:** [docs](https://www.socialfetch.dev/docs/api/v1/flickr/explore/list) - **Platform page:** [/platforms/flickr](https://www.socialfetch.dev/platforms/flickr) ## FAQ ### Which dates can I ask for? A real calendar date in YYYY-MM-DD form, for example 2026-11-01 or 2020-02-29. Impossible dates such as 2026-02-30 are refused with a 400. ### How many photos are in a day? About 500. The route caps a day at that many and page.reachableItems reports the reachable count. ### How much does an Explore page cost? Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth. Each paginated page is a separate billed request. ### What is the order of Explore photos? Explore's order for that day. Use the photo search route if you need a specific sort.
