There is an example for uploading photos by HTTP POST. The content type "multipart/form-data" should be used for submitting forms that contain files, non-ASCII data, and binary data.īut that would mean you don't "see" the photo in the URL.įlickr offers an API (a programming interface) that allows you to perform various actions, including downloading and uploading photos, finding users and their details, et cetera. You would use a "multipart" form for this: have lots of photos on flickr and have never had problems so not sure what is happening. Posting in the hope that Flickr official see, and try and fix if they are not aware of the issues. Search the Help Forum trouble uploading photos Suzy Hanzlik says: I am not able to upload photos for some reason. Uploads disappear, reappear, when I add a title, photo disappears again, reappears, add text and the title disappears etc, etc. The photo's data will be embedded into this request. Pete Foley says: Been through the usual trouble shooting, but it's all over the place. In order to upload to Flickr, you need to upload the photo via a HTTP POST request. The content type "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" is inefficient for sending large quantities of binary data or text containing non-ASCII charactersĪnd an image is just a huge amount of binary data. There is always a limit of how much can be sent. The problem is that you can't push all the data of a photo within an URL. Requests using GET (and a few other HTTP methods) "SHOULD NOT have the significance of taking an action other than retrieval" Requests a representation of the specified resource.
You would have to pass the data of the photo within the URL, which is a HTTP GET Request: Maybe there is a Flickr App out there that does exactly that, but I wasn't able to find one (yet). You could of course (as a workaround) program an application that uses the Flickr API to fetch an image from an URL and upload it to Flickr.
I don't know the reason, but unless somebody finds a backdoor for that, you won't be able to do that. Given your new specific question, there is no possibility from Flickr itself.
