oEmbed is an open standard designed to allow embedding image or video content into websites. The simple API allows a website to display embedded content (such as photos or videos) when a user posts a link to that resource, without having to parse the resource directly.

Endpoint

  • api.smugmug.com/services/oembed/

URL Scheme

  • *.smugmug.com/*
  • http//*.example.com/* where example.com is a SmugMug customer's domain

Discovery

Most SmugMug URLs support discovery using tags in the document header as described in the oEmbed spec.

Notes

Many SmugMug URLs contain fragements (example: #1234_abcd) To ensure the proper oEmbed profile is returned, please include the full fragment when doing discovery or requesting embeds details.

  • url (required)
