Use Pexels with Snow
Snow is a personal AI assistant that builds real apps for you, and they can put Pexels to work.
What Snow can do with Pexels
These are the Pexels actions available to the apps you build with Snow. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these on its own.
Tool to get all media within a collection by its ID. Use when you need to fetch paginated media from a specific collection.
Tool to get real-time curated photos. Use when you need to fetch curated photos with pagination support.
Tool to get all of the user's collections on Pexels. Use when you need to list a user's collections with pagination support.
Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific photo. Use when you have a valid photo ID to fetch metadata including dimensions, photographer details, and image URLs. Use after confirming the photo ID from search or curated endpoints.
Tool to retrieve current popular Pexels videos. Use when you want to fetch trending videos from Pexels.
Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific video from Pexels. Use when you have a valid video ID to fetch metadata including dimensions, duration, videographer details, and available video file versions.
Tool to search for photos on Pexels. Use when you need to retrieve photos by a search term and optional filters. Call after confirming you have a valid Pexels API key. Response image URLs are nested under `photo.src.<size>` (e.g., `photo.src.original`, `photo.src.landscape`, `photo.src.medium`); the top-level `url` field is not sufficient for accessing specific image sizes.
Tool to search for videos on Pexels by query and optional filters. Use when you need to find relevant video assets. Combining multiple filters with a narrow query may return few or no results; only apply strict filter combinations when explicitly required.
Tool to get featured collections. Use when you need curated collections of photos and videos with pagination support.
