GET /v2/videos/collections/featured* → endpoint removal
Shutterstock API
Stopped working
On February 14, 2025, Shutterstock API removed the featured video collections endpoints due to service deprecation. Calls to GET /v2/videos/collections/featured* fail after this date. This change directly affects any integration requesting these featured video collections endpoints.
Calls it hits
GET /v2/videos/collections/featured*
What to use instead of these calls
Remove these calls, as featured collections have no direct replacement, making what to display instead a product decision. You can maintain your own curated sets using the catalog collections endpoints such as GET /v2/catalog/collections.
Shutterstock retired featured collections with no replacement, so what to show instead is a product decision.
In Shutterstock API's words
Removed the following unused endpoints due to service deprecation: - GET /v2/images/collections/featured - GET /v2/images/collections/featured/{id} - GET /v2/images/collections/featured/{id}/items - GET /v2/videos/collections/featured - GET /v2/videos/collections/featured/{id} - GET /v2/videos/collections/featured/{id}/items
