I am using the Zomato API in my application . I queried restaurants in an area with the the following
https://developers.zomato.com/api/v2.1/restaurant?res_id=RESID
and I get a JSON response of restaurant data. like

it gives a menu url like
but this URL returns an entire web page ,of the restaurant's zomato menu listing's first image only .
I want the restaurant menu photos alone (all pages of the menu). Similarly for photos too.
PS:Please don't suggest web scraping here. Is there an API that fetches these directly?
Thanks!
For your information, restaurant's menu photos are not available through the Zomato APIs. Perhaps, the listing's menu page url would be the closest option that might help in your case.
As far as the restaurant's photos are concerned, they are limited to selected API partners only. At the most, you'll be able to access the restaurant thumbnail.
See if this answers your query :)
