Start from a user's root node (obtained from user profile) and traverse down through folders to find albums. Returns child nodes with their NodeID, Type, Name, and WebUri. Use the NodeID from results to fetch further nested children or to get detailed node information. |
| `SMUGMUG_SEARCH_USER_CONTENT` | Search User Content | Search for images across a user's SmugMug content. This tool searches through a user's images by querying titles, captions, keywords, and filenames. Returns a list of matching images with details like title, caption, URLs, and related resources. Use this when you need to find specific images within a user's SmugMug account. Results are returned in paginated format with up to 100 images per page. The default ordering is by popularity, but can be changed to newest or oldest. |
