request images containing colors

[ghost]

Hi, Is it possible to request all images containing certain colors (where the colors are given in hex code)? I tried with https://api.harvardartmuseums.org/color/34838386?apikey=...colors=color:#0000ff|#FF0000&q=imagepermissionlevel:0

but that didn't seem to work. Thank you.

Not exactly. The color endpoint isn't directly associated with images.

One way to approach this is to request all objects whose primary image contains certain colors. Use the color parameter on the object endpoint. Set the color parameter to a URL encoded hex color value. For example, the following query will find all objects with an image containing the color #afaf4b.

https://api.harvardartmuseums.org/object?apikey=[YOUR-API-KEY]&color=%23afaf4b

Thank you @jeffsteward That works perfectly

@jeffsteward Is there a way to search by a range of colors, or is it only possible to search by exact color hex codes?

@TwentyPorts At present the API only supports search by exact color hex codes.
