    }, err => {

var client = new api (creds);
client.images().withId('200261415-001')

        apiSecret: "your api secret",
        username: "username",
        password: "password"
    };
var client = new api(creds);
var videoId = "459425248";
client.videos().withResponseField(["summary_set", "downloads"]).withId(videoId).execute().then(response => {
        console.log("Title: " + response.title);
        console.log("Sizes: ");
        response.download_sizes.forEach((current, index, arr) => {
            console.log(current.name + " - " + current.description);
        })
        client.downloadsvideos().withId(videoId).withSize("ntsccm").execute().then(response => {
            var downloadUri = response.uri;

            https.get(downloadUri, (res) => {
                if (res.statusCode === 200) {
                    var header = res.headers["content-disposition"];
                    var filename = header.split("filename=")[1];
                    console.log(filename);
                    var file = fs.createWriteStream("./" + filename);
                    res.on("data", (chunk) => {
                        file.write(chunk);
                    }).on("end", () => {
                        file.end();
                    });
                }
            });
        }, err => {

var api = require("gettyimages-api");
var creds = { apiKey: "your_api_key", apiSecret: "your_api_secret", username: "your_username", password: "your_password" };
var client = new api (creds);
client.customrequest().withRoute("search/images").withMethod("get").withQueryParameters({"phrase": "cat", "file_types": "eps"})
    .execute().then(response => {
        console.log(JSON.stringify(response.images[0]));
