How this service works
Openverse openly licensed image search (Creative Commons and public domain): title, creator, license, ready-made attribution, source page, direct image URL and size. Images only; each result keeps its own license. Results can be slow (up to ~15 s).
Output
A list of image results (up to 20, default 5), each containing: image title, creator name, license type and version, a pre-formatted attribution string, a link to the source page, the direct image URL, and image dimensions (width and height in pixels).
Example use cases
Blog post illustration sourcing
“Search for 5 Creative Commons images of 'urban gardening' and give me the attribution text and direct image URL for each one so I can use them legally in my article.”
Educational material image hunt
“Find me 8 publicly licensed images of 'ancient Roman architecture' — I need the license type and ready-made attribution string for each so my students can use them in their presentations.”
Commercial project asset search
“Look up openly licensed images of 'coffee brewing' on Openverse — show me up to 10 results with the license, creator name, and direct image URL so I can pick ones safe for commercial use.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.fadeandco.workers.dev/api/dev/openverse-media?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to find images that are legally reusable under Creative Commons or public domain terms, and you need the attribution information pre-formatted. It is ideal when the user requires ready-made attribution strings rather than generating their own, or when commercial/editorial reuse compliance matters. Prefer it over general web image search when license certainty is critical.
Side effects
- No results found for obscure or niche queries
- Slow response times up to ~15 seconds due to upstream Openverse API latency
- Query string shorter than 1 or longer than 100 characters returns a validation error
- Limit parameter outside 1–20 range is rejected
- Upstream Openverse service downtime causes failure
- Some images may have broken or expired direct URLs at the source
