Get your album id in imgur

Original post in spanish

I want to use my Imgur account as storage for the screenshots in my posts.

I'm using Visual Studio Code as my markdown editor, and I found this awesome extension that makes my life easier: vscode-imgur.

When I started to configure the extension, I needed the id of the album used as storage in Imgur.

I didn't found details for the albums, but if you select the Images option in your user menu

You can open any existing album or create a new one

Image

And in the dropdown Edit this album you can select the Embed Album option

Image

In that code, the highlighted part is the album id, everything after a/ in the data-id attribute
