Remember Google Cloud Vision is free for the first 1000 calls every month.

@Peter thank you for this information, actually I also didn't know about that.

This extension is just fun time activity, we can add more cloud vision functionality also.

You can have 1000 label detection, 1000 text detection, 1000 logo detection, etc for free every month. So for testing this should be sufficient.

I am looking for a sample code, please help.

It works for me but for the first API call only. For the next one, I have to regenerate an API key and restart the application

Thank you so much for this extension, is working really good. Could be possible to add another block for detecting objects in the image? would be really usefull, thanks!
