I'm trying to build an app using Google photos API, in which given a person's image, I can get all the images of him/her from Google photos - google-photos

Question

I'm a newbie and this is my first project on this topic. Google photos group the images based on faces. I want to fetch, set of all photos associated to a given person or set of photos in which the person is present. Is it possible to do this? How to go about doing this and if you could please specify a good source from where I can get better understanding of the API.
Thanks in advance!

Try This Code
call onAuthPhotoApiLoad function on button click
**also include js of google **
var scopeApi = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/photoslibrary', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/photoslibrary.readonly', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/photoslibrary.readonly.appcreateddata'];
function onAuthPhotoApiLoad() {
window.gapi.auth.authorize(
{
'client_id': "Put Client ID Here",
'scope': scopeApi,
'immediate': false
},
handlePhotoApiAuthResult);
}
function handlePhotoApiAuthResult(authResult) {
if (authResult && !authResult.error) {
oauthToken = authResult.access_token;
GetAllPhotoGoogleApi();
}
}
function GetAllPhotoGoogleApi() {
gapi.client.request({
'path': 'https://photoslibrary.googleapis.com/v1/mediaItems:search',
'method': 'POST',
'body': {
"filters": {
"mediaTypeFilter": {
"mediaTypes": ["PHOTO"]
}
}
}
}).then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
}, function (reason) {
console.log(reason);
});
}
