Google similar image search API
api, image, search
Solution
If you have a URL for a hosted image (using Dropbox, imgur, etc), the answer at https://stackoverflow.com/a/15134958/116891 shows you how to find similar images. Basically,
http://images.google.com/searchbyimage?image_url=YOUR_HOSTED_URL
Problem
I'm trying to find out if there is a way to do google similar image searches via an API? I know the image search api is depreciated but is it still useable? https://developers.google.com/image-search/ Also... It seems that you can do image searches with the custom search api but I can't seem to work out if a similar image search is possible. http://thenextweb.com/dd/2012/02/14/googles-custom-search-api-now-supports-image-only-results/ Any leads on advice on working this our would be appreciated. Thanks!
