Googlephotos MCP integration
Uploads images and video, batches them into albums at a set position, adds album enrichments, and downloads originals back out.
13actions available
Three actions you can hand over today
Every action runs live through MCP. Nothing to build, nothing to maintain.
Create album
Lyro creates a new album in Google Photos for organizing related images. Your customer can now group and share photos by topic.
Upload media
Lyro adds a media file to your Google Photos library. The photo is backed up and searchable across all your devices.
List albums
Lyro shows all albums visible in your Google Photos account. You can find or reference the right collection for organizing new photos.
How businesses use Googlephotos + Lyro
Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Googlephotos actions Lyro runs to close it.
Get a customer's photo into the right album
Lyro uploads the image or video, creates the media items in a single batch, and places them in an existing album at the position you want rather than at the end of it.
Upload MediaBatch Create Media ItemsBatch Add Media ItemsCurate an album after it has been built
Lyro creates the album, renames it or swaps its cover photo, and inserts an enrichment at a set position so a shared album reads in order instead of as a pile of files.
Create AlbumUpdate AlbumAdd EnrichmentFind and return the file someone is asking for
Lyro searches the library, resolves a batch of media item identifiers in one call, and downloads the item as a file so the original can go back into the conversation.
Search Media ItemsBatch Get Media ItemsDownload Photos Media ItemKeep captions and album listings accurate
Lyro updates a media item's description, lists the albums shown in the user's Albums tab, and reads a single album by ID to confirm what it currently holds.

How it works
Get started in 3 steps
Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Googlephotos actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.
Connect Googlephotos
Authorize the Googlephotos account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Googlephotos actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.

FAQ
Everything else about Googlephotos
Setup, permissions, and the limits of what Lyro can do inside Googlephotos.
No. Since 31 March 2025 the Google Photos Library API returns only media items that your own application uploaded, which is exactly what List Media Items (App-Created Only) reflects. Camera roll photos, items from other apps, and web uploads are out of reach; Google's Photos Picker API is the route to a user's full library.
