Here is a simple JavaScript example of how to call the Shutterstock API:

const axios = require('axios');

const getConfig = {
    method: 'get',
    url: 'https://api.shutterstock.com/v2/images/search',
    headers: { 
        'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN', 
    },
    params: { query: 'your-search-term' }
};

axios(getConfig)
.then(function (response) {
   console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch(function (error) {
   console.log(error);
});

In this example, replace 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' with your actual Shutterstock API access token and 'your-search-term' with the keyword for photos or videos you want to retrieve.
