Hi Pankaj,

sorry for the late reply but I had to get married in the meantime ;)

You cannot search images, as in the files themselves, but you should be able to search the File pages by restricting the search results by namespace ID, an example:

http://glee.wikia.com/wikia.php?controller=SearchApi&method=getList&...

This request returns results for namespace 6 only, i.e. File pages referring to "rachel", the result contains URL's to the real images.

Using the same controller (SearchApi) you can also search article content:

http://glee.wikia.com/wikia.php?controller=SearchApi&method=getList&...

You can refer to the documentation for that controller for more info:

http://glee.wikia.com/wikia.php?controller=SearchApi&method=help

Hope this answers your questions.

Cheers :)

Hi Pankaj,

it's not possible to search images across all the wikis with an API request to www.wikia.com, but you can search for wikis either by name or domain using the WikisApi controller:

http://www.wikia.com/wikia.php?controller=WikisApi&method=getByString&am...

You can find more information about that controller here: http://www.wikia.com/wikia.php?controller=WikisApi&method=help

For more information about Wikia-specific API's I'd suggest you to contact the Community Support team directly, you can find a contact form on the main site.
