Getty Images

The Getty Images API brings the best visual content straight to you and your customers, letting you integrate outstanding images, videos, and illustrations from Getty Images and iStock directly into your platform. One REST API at version 3 — 67 paths and 76 operations across creative and editorial image and video search, reverse image search, asset metadata, licensing and download, collaborative boards, pull-based catalogue synchronisation via Asset Changes, and Generative AI by Getty Images (text-to-image, refine, extend, object and background removal, reference-image influence). A remote MCP server at https://mcp.gettyimages.com/v1 exposes search, metadata and download to AI agents. Enterprise identity is served by a live SCIM 2.0 surface and SAML 2.0 SSO. Access is sales-gated: credentials are issued by a Getty Images account representative against an existing content licence agreement, with no self-service sign-up, no free tier and no published API pricing.

Getty Images publishes 30 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Affiliates API, Ai API, Artists API, and 27 more. Tagged areas include Image, Media, Photos, Video, and Stock Photography.

Getty Images’ developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, developer console, getting-started guide, changelog, release notes, and 67 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/getty-images: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

    the enterprise extension. Authorization is OAuth 2.0 bearer token. The discovery triad — ServiceProviderConfig, Schemas
    and ResourceTypes — is served anonymously; protected resources require a token.
