AP Images

The AP Images integration provides access to an enormous library of images. When you identify an image to use, you import it into Brightspot and then add it to assets such as articles and galleries.

This section describes how to configure the integration in Brightspot, and how to perform an integrated search.

The integration requires an AP Newsroom account. See newsroom.ap.org.
