What is postUrl in: AlbumEntry insertedEntry = myPicasa.insert(postUrl, myAlbum);

I´m trying to understand and use the Picasa Api, I´m using this example https://developers.google.com/picasa-web/docs/2.0/developers_guide_java?hl=nl-NL, so I´m trying to create a new album using the followin code:

AlbumEntry myAlbum = new AlbumEntry();

    myAlbum.setTitle(new PlainTextConstruct(title));
    myAlbum.setDescription(new PlainTextConstruct(description));

    AlbumEntry insertedEntry = myPicasa.insert(postUrl, myAlbum);

Now is my question, how do I find the postUrl, or what do I have to fill in there?

Thanks!

  • As per the linked documentation, postURL seems to be the ID of the album into which the photo needs to be inserted. It can be constructed in Java thus:

    URL albumPostUrl = new URL("https://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/username/albumid/albumid");
