2. Select the items you’d like to download (maximum 500).
3. Click Download | click Create .zip file.
4. Once your .zip files are created, you will receive notifications to both your FlickrMail and your Flickr login/contact email containing a link to download your files.

Download all your content (Flickr Data)

Note: Downloading your Flickr Data is available exclusively on web browser. 

1. Click on your Profile photo | click on Settings.
2. Under Your Flickr Data, click the blue button that says Request My Flickr Data.
3. Once your .zip files are created, you will receive notifications to both your FlickrMail and your Flickr login/contact email containing a link to download your files. 

Keep in mind that links to the requested data are time sensitive and will expire, so check your email and FlickrMail notifications regularly to see if your files are available for download. If your files have already expired, you always have the option to request the data again as long as you haven’t deleted the content from your Flickr account. 

Compiling your Flickr Data could take a few hours, or a few weeks, depending on the amount of content in your account. Please note that the EXIF data for your photos will be compiled in a separate JSON file. More information about that is available here.

Note: Links to your .zip files can also be found back in your account settings under Your Flickr Data.
