We are going to WildHacks, are you?
The Walgreens API team is very excited to be involved with WildHacks directly located in our home base of Chicago!
This event offers a really great opportunity to work alongside our Walgreens Developer Evangelist, @WalgreensAPI, to create some unique Photo Prints API integrations. We have been involved with hack-a-thons like this before and have always had a great experience with the many photo partners we meet and foster at these events!
We look forward to some awesome innovative ideas from this event, which you can learn more about at http://j.mp/WAGHACKS, where we have listed the prizes we are giving out at the event and have some getting started documentation!
Introducing the MyVukee Photo Prints Suite
Walgreens is happy to announce a smorgasbord of Photo Print API integrations with MyVukee. The ability to print photos and creative products to any Walgreens or Duane Reade is now integrated into the MyVukee PhotoBook (iOS and Android), PhotoCal (iOS) and PostCard (iOS) apps.
The MyVukee team has gone above and beyond to create three unique applications that print a multitude of products to our 8200+ storefronts on the same day! The PhotoBook application allows users to create wonderfully themed stories and print the 8.5x11” Black Linen Photo Book product. The PhotoCal application allows users to print the beautiful 8.5x11” 12 month Wall Calendar product. Lastly, the PostCard application allows users to layout and print the amazing 5x7” Folded Photo Card product.
We are excited to see our third party integrations brining more and more of our creative products to their integrations! Check out these awesome applications today!
