User search API to get Image Url

Scott Dunn

March 25, 2022 14:08

Hi, I have requirement not to use public_id to get image url. Instead, I am thinking to use tag(will set unique tag to each image while uploading) and search image based on unique tag name.

We have around 150000+ images.

Can i go ahead with this approach. wil search api handles many requests?

Hello Scott,

Thanks for reaching out.

You can use the Admin API to query for assets that have a particular tag applied. But the Admin API is rate limited.
https://cloudinary.com/documentation/admin_api#get_resources_by_tag

You could also try the client-side asset list. This is not rate-limited because it is not an API call. It is a JSON list of all assets with a particular tag.
https://cloudinary.com/documentation/advanced_url_delivery_options#client_side_resources

If you click the following URL, you will see a list of all assets in our demo account that have a tag of 'logo':

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Kind Regards,

Tia
