Assets Server sample plug-in - Search in external website

Info: This plug-in is part of a set of sample plug-ins that is shipped with Assets Server. For more information, see Assets Server sample plug-ins.

Note: The use of internal plug-ins such as sample plug-ins has been deprecated in Assets Server 6.73. These plug-ins should instead be created as an external plug-in.

We have included a simple set of plug-ins to search external sources, in 2 different flavors: getty and iStockphoto.

Say you're searching for pictures of famous landmarks in London in your Assets Server, but you're just not finding the results you need. You're going to have to scour some external sources to find that perfect picture. Instead of leaving your client for a web browser to start your search all over again, simply search in your favorite image repository in a new tab next to your results.

Note: These sample plug-ins are available on Github. They will need further customization by one of our partners to make them suited for production use.
