Introductie

De Pexels-API maakt programmatische toegang mogelijk tot de volledige Pexels-bibliotheek, inclusief foto's en video's. Alle content is gratis beschikbaar en je mag de Pexels-content voor van alles en nog wat gebruiken, zolang het maar binnen onze Richtlijnen valt.

De Pexels-API is een RESTful JSON API en je kunt hiermee in elke taal of vanuit elk framework met een HTTP-bibliotheek communiceren. Als alternatief onderhoudt Pexels een aantal officiële Cliëntbibliotheken die je kunt gebruiken.

Als je vragen hebt, kun je onze Veelgestelde vragen raadplegen of een e-mail sturen naar [email protected].

Note: For historical reasons, all endpoints begin with https://api.pexels.com/v1/ except for video endpoints, which begin with https://api.pexels.com/videos/. Please see the individual endpoints listed below for more details about how to call each endpoint.

Richtlijnen

Zorg ervoor dat je een prominente link naar Pexels weergeeft wanneer je een API-verzoek indient. Je kunt een tekstlink gebruiken (zoals "Foto's die geleverd zijn door Pexels") of een link met ons logo.

Vermeld indien mogelijk altijd onze fotografen (zoals "Foto gemaakt door Jan de Vries op Pexels" met een link naar de pagina met de foto op Pexels).

Je mag geen kernfunctionaliteiten van Pexels kopiëren of repliceren (inclusief Pexels-inhoud beschikbaar maken als app voor achtergronden).

Maak geen misbruik van de API. De API heeft een standaardlimiet van 200 verzoeken per uur en 20.000 verzoeken per maand. Je kunt contact met ons opnemen om een hogere limiet aan te vragen. We vragen je echter wel om voorbeelden bij te voegen of een demonstratie te geven waarin je gebruikt van API met toeschrijvingen duidelijk zichtbaar is. Als je aan onze API-voorwaarden voldoet, kun je gratis een onbeperkt aantal verzoeken krijgen.

Misbruik van de API van Pexels omvat, maar is niet beperkt tot, het omzeilen van de limiet. Dit zal leiden tot een herroeping van je API-toegang.

Cliëntbibliotheken

Pexels onderhoudt een aantal officiële API-cliëntbibliotheken die je kunt gebruiken om te communiceren met de Pexels-API:

Language Package Github Changelog Version
Ruby rubygems pexels-ruby changelog 0.3.0
Javascript npm pexels-javascript changelog 1.2.1
.net nuget PexelsDotNetSDK changelog 1.0.6

Lees de documentatie van de cliëntbibliotheek die je wilt gebruiken voor meer informatie over syntax (voorbeelden van codes voor elke bibliotheek zijn beschikbaar in deze documentatie). Issues en Pull Requests op Github zijn eveneens welkom!

Laat het ons weten als je een onofficiële Pexels-API-bibliotheek hebt aangemaakt voor een andere taal!

Autorisatie

Autorisatie is vereist voor de Pexels-API. Iedereen met een Pexels-account kan een API-sleutel aanvragen, die dan ook meteen wordt verzonden.

Je hebt je sleutel nodig voor alle API-verzoeken die je doet. Dit kan door een Authorization-koptekst toe te voegen.

Example of Authorization
1
2

curl -H "Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.pexels.com/v1/search?query=people"

Statistieken opvragen

Om te zien hoeveel verzoeken je nog over hebt in je maandelijkse quotum, bevatten de succesvolle verzoeken van de Pexels-API drie HTTP-headers:

Response Header Meaning
X-Ratelimit-Limit je totale verzoeklimiet voor de maandelijkse periode;
X-Ratelimit-Remaining hoeveel van deze verzoeken je nog over hebt;
X-Ratelimit-Reset UNIX-tijdstempel van wanneer de huidige maandelijkse periode verloopt.

Opmerking: Deze reactie-headers worden alleen weergegeven voor succesvolle (2xx) reacties. Deze zijn niet opgenomen in andere reacties, waaronder 429 Too Many Requests, wat aangeeft dat je de limiet hebt overschreden. Zorg ervoor dat je X-Ratelimit-Remaining en X-Ratelimit-Reset bijhoudt om je verzoeklimiet te beheren.

Example of Rate Limit Headers
1
2
3

X-Ratelimit-Limit: 20000
X-Ratelimit-Remaining: 19684
X-Ratelimit-Reset: 1590529646

Paginering

De meeste Pexels-API-verzoeken laten meerdere records tegelijk zien. Al deze eindpunten zijn gepagineerd en kunnen maximaal 80 verzoeken tegelijk tonen. Elk gepagineerd verzoek accepteert dezelfde parameters en laat in de reactie dezelfde gegevens voor paginering zien.

Opmerking: de reactiekenmerken prev_page en next_page worden alleen getoond als er een overeenkomstige pagina is.

Overzicht

Met Pexels-collecties kun je specifieke foto's en video's groeperen in één uniforme galerij. Dit kan bijvoorbeeld handig zijn als je een specifieke subset van Pexels-content aan je gebruikers wilt tonen. Via de Pexels-API heb je toegang tot al je collecties en de media die daarin opgenomen zijn.

Opmerking: collecties kunnen niet worden aangemaakt of gewijzigd met de Pexels-API. In plaats daarvan kun je je collecties beheren op de Pexels-website en via de iOS- of Android-app. API geeft je alleen toegang tot uitgelichte collecties en je eigen collecties.

De collectiebron

De Collection-bron is een versie van een Pexels-collectie in JSON-formaat. De eindpunten van de collectie reageren met de collectiedata die in deze vorm zijn opgemaakt.
