title: Saving JSON or XML API response to a Wordpress database
body: <p>I'm working on project and I'm trying to integrate a photographer's Flickr account with his Wordpress website. The idea is to sync the Wordpress website with his flickr.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using the Flickr API to get his picures URLS, descriptions, tags and sets and display everyting. The problem is that for every visit I have to go through the whole API response and parse it. Have to extract all the links, tags, descriptions etc.</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking for a way to "import" this API response (XML or JSON) to the wordpress database and work with this data. I'll just have the option to update the database (or maybe just a table on the database) once he updates something on his flickr account. This update doesn't need to be automatic.</p>
