Image Retrieval Example

To find an image from the 2022 NBA Finals:

1: Reference the Coverage document for the proper provider. In this case, NBA action shots are provided by Getty.

2: Ensure you have the correct API key to retrieve this image. Trial keys will require a t in the access_level parameter; production keys will use a p.

3: Call the Action Shot Manifest for the desired date (e.g. 2022/06/17), using your Getty NBA Actionshot API key, and with getty in the provider parameter.

https://api.sportradar.us/nba-images-t3/getty/actionshots/events/2022/06/17/manifest.xml?api_key=**your_api_key**

4: Locate the asset id and/or link for an action shot. You can reference the description element for a description of each image.
