Mike, I downloaded the lib from google code, but unless I am missing something there is no com.adobe.webapis.flickr.authorization package in the flickr-.87.zip src folder or available via code completion when dropping the SWC into your project. This post is kind of old… is something similar still available?

Ok, got it, bad Flex Builder configuration. Sorry for my previous comment, you can ignore it ;)

Well, actually, I updated SVN but the new classes are not compiling :-( Did I miss something?

Was starting coding exactly that on top of as3flickr when I encountered your post. You saved me some precious time. Next time I’ll update my SVN before coding ;) I hope to come up with an example showing the usage of the AS3 flickr with ILOG Elixir for MAX.

Hi there,
What i’d like to do is have AS3 access one of my own private photoSets, but I don’t want every user/visitor to my site to have to log in to flickr. Is this (having the user authenticate via a flickr URL) the *only* way to get an auth_token? Or is that unnecessary as I’m accessing my own photoSet?
Thanks in advance!
