| =Flickr Configuration=
| |
| This page lets you configure access to a Flickr repository. It will allow a user to log into their Flickr account and copy files from their account into any of the Moodle file interfaces.
| |
| | |
| To set this repository up you need to set the following two fields:
| |
| *API Key
| |
| *Secret
| |
| | |
| ==Setting up a Flickr API==
| |
| To get your API Key and Secret you need to create an App inside your Flickr account. Visit [http://www.flickr.com/services/api/keys/ this link] to start creating your own API Key and secret.
| |
| #Click the "Get Another Key" button to start creating your App. [[Image:get-another-key.png]]
| |
| #Choose "Apply for a Non-commercial Key"
| |
| #Enter a title and brief description for the App (i.e. Moodle to Flickr Access - App to allow Moodle to access Flickr through it's repository API)
| |
| #Tick the two boxes to show your agreement to Flickr's terms of use and then click submit.
| |
| #You will now have the key and secret for the new app. Copy and paste these into the fields in your Moodle Flickr configuration page.
| |
| #Click save on the Moodle Flickr configuration page.
| |
| #Revisit the settings of your Flickr repository in Moodle and copy the callback URL from that page.
| |
| #Revisit your Flickr App page and click on the "Edit Auth Flow for this App" link
| |
| #Paste the URL from your Moodle page into the Callback URL field on your Flickr App
| |
| #Click "Save Changes" | |
| | |
| You should now have a working Flickr repository. Try adding a file from your Flickr account as a resource in Moodle to test it!
