Shutterstock

Brightspot's Shutterstock integration lets you search and import licensed images from a linked Shutterstock account into federated search.

Configuring the integration

To configure the Shutterstock integration:

  1. From the left navigation, under Admin, click Sites & Settings.
  2. From the Integrations tab, expand the Shutterstock cluster.
  3. Expand the Shutterstock API Client list, and select an API client. If the required API client does not appear, click Create New, and complete the following fields:
    1. (Optional) In the Name field, type a name to identify this API client.
    2. In the Consumer Key field, type the consumer key from the Shutterstock Developers Console.
    3. In the Consumer Secret field, type the consumer secret from the Shutterstock Developers Console.
    4. (Optional) In the Access Token Override field, type an access token to use instead of Brightspot's OAuth exchange.
  4. Click Save.

Linking your account

Shutterstock imports images on behalf of the signed-in editor rather than a shared service account. If you have not linked your Shutterstock account, the search results panel shows a "Click here to authenticate Shutterstock" prompt instead of a search field.

To link your Shutterstock account:

  1. Open the search panel for Shutterstock.
  2. Click the authentication link ("Click here to authenticate Shutterstock" the first time, or Link another account to add an additional account).
  3. Sign in to Shutterstock and approve the requested permissions.

After you approve access, Brightspot returns you to the search panel and Shutterstock is ready to search.
