Google Photos

Google Photos (google.com). Use this skill for ANY Google Photos request — reading, creating, updating, and deleting data. Whenever a task involves Google Photos, use this skill instead of calling the API directly.

Operate Google Photos through your OOMOL-connected account. This skill calls the googlephotos connector with the oo CLI; OOMOL injects credentials server-side, so you never handle raw tokens.

Category: Storage, Design & Media. Exposes 18 action(s).

Running an action

Assume the user has already installed the oo CLI, signed in, and connected Google Photos. Do not run oo auth login or open the connection URL proactively — just run the action. Fall back to First-time setup only when a command actually fails with an auth or connection error.

1. Inspect the contract to get the authoritative input/output schema before building a payload:

oo connector schema "googlephotos" --action "<action_name>"

2. Run the action with a JSON payload that matches the input schema:

oo connector run "googlephotos" --action "<action_name>" --data '<json>' --json

• --data takes a JSON object string or @path/to/file.json; omit it to send {}.
• The response is { "data": ..., "meta": { "executionId": "..." } }; the execution id lives under meta.executionId.

Each action below links to a reference file with its purpose and exact commands. Read the linked file, then fetch the live schema with oo connector schema before constructing --data.

Available actions

• add_enrichment — Add an enrichment item to a Google Photos album.
• batch_add_media_items — Add existing Google Photos media items to an album.
• batch_create_media_items — Batch create Google Photos media items from URLs or base64 payloads.
• batch_get_media_items — Fetch multiple Google Photos media items by ID.
• create_album — Create a Google Photos album.

• get_album — Fetch one Google Photos album by ID.
• get_media_item_download — Download a Google Photos Library API media item created by this application through connector file transit.
• get_picked_media_item_download — Download a picked Google Photos media item through connector file transit using its trusted temporary base URL.
• get_picker_session — Get the current state of a Google Photos Picker session.
• list_albums — List Google Photos albums visible to the current application connection. If you need the user to choose from their existing Google Photos library, use the Picker actions instead.
• list_media_items — List Google Photos Library API media items created by this application.
• list_picked_media_items — List media items selected from the user's Google Photos library in a picker session.
• search_media_items — Search Google Photos Library API media items created by this application.

• update_media_item — Update a Google Photos media item description.
• upload_media — Upload one media item into Google Photos from a URL or base64 payload.

Safety

• Read actions (get / list / search) are safe to run directly.
• Create, update, send, or post actions change Google Photos state — confirm the exact payload and effect with the user before running.
• Delete or remove actions are destructive — always confirm the target and get explicit approval first.

First-time setup

These are one-time steps — do not repeat them on every call. Run a step only when a command fails for the matching reason.

• oo: command not found — install the oo CLI (other platforms: https://cli.oomol.com/install-guide.md):

  curl -fsSL https://cli.oomol.com/install.sh | bash    # macOS / Linux
  

  irm https://cli.oomol.com/install.ps1 | iex           # Windows PowerShell
  

• Not signed in / authentication error — sign in to your OOMOL account once:

  oo auth login
  

• scope_missing / credential_expired / app_not_ready / app_not_found — Google Photos is not connected, or the connection expired or lacks a scope. Connect once (auth type: OAuth2) at:

  https://console.oomol.com/app-connections?provider=googlephotos
  

• HTTP 402 / OOMOL_INSUFFICIENT_CREDIT — billing stop. Recharge at https://console.oomol.com/billing/token-recharge before retrying.
