Every Flickr API application needs to obtain an API 'key'. You can apply for a key by following this link https://www.flickr.com/services/api/auth.howto.web.html.

Once the API_KEY and the API_SECRET are obtained, open flickr.py and set those variables accordingly.

$ cd FBI_Scraper
$ python multigetphotos.py [KEYWORD(S)] [START DATE] [END DATE]

By default, a new folder called “KEYWORD” will be created in the working directory, containing all the downloaded images.
