## Backend class

For Django, add this class path to `AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS`. For other
integrations, use the same class path in the framework-specific backend
setting.

| Backend name   | Class path                                |
|----------------|-------------------------------------------|
| `flickr`       | `social_core.backends.flickr.FlickrOAuth` |

Flickr uses OAuth v1.0 for authentication.

- Register a new application at the [Flickr App Garden](http://www.flickr.com/services/apps/create/), and
- fill `Key` and `Secret` values in the settings:
  ```default
  SOCIAL_AUTH_FLICKR_KEY = ''
  SOCIAL_AUTH_FLICKR_SECRET = ''
  ```
- Flickr might show a messages saying “Oops! Flickr doesn’t recognise the
  permission set.”, if encountered with this error, just define this setting:
  ```default
  SOCIAL_AUTH_FLICKR_AUTH_EXTRA_ARGUMENTS = {'perms': 'read'}
  ```
