Creative Commons Catalog — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is Creative Commons Catalog free to use?

Creative Commons Catalog is listed in our free catalogue, but it requires OAuth, so you will need to register before your first call. Providers frequently reserve higher limits and commercial use for paid plans.

Does Creative Commons Catalog need an API key?

Creative Commons Catalog uses OAuth rather than a simple key, so you register an application and complete an authorisation flow before making calls. That is more setup than a key, and it is why OAuth APIs are harder to try quickly.

Can I call Creative Commons Catalog from browser JavaScript?

Yes. Creative Commons Catalog returned CORS headers when we checked it, so a browser will let your page read the response. You can fetch it directly from client-side JavaScript with no proxy and no backend.

Is Creative Commons Catalog still working?

Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached Creative Commons Catalog and recorded a 100% reliability score with a median response time of 4034 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.

Is Creative Commons Catalog available over HTTPS?

Yes. Creative Commons Catalog serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
