Automate NodeXL Pro >Automate your Flickr network analysis!
The following NodeXL Pro “data recipes” are designed to analyze Flickr network data with just a few clicks. These files contain all options settings needed to automate the tasks required to create a full-scale social network analysis. Content analysis is very limited because only little metadata is available via the API.
You can easily customize these data recipes to your own needs and save them for future use. You can learn how to automate NodeXL Pro by reading this page, looking at this tutorial and/or watching this video.
Download the official NodeXL Pro recipe bundle below, then unzip and save the folder to your machine. The file name of a data recipe corresponds with the names of the recipes presented below.
