system error (code 5) on images.get, json api 1.2.1

I've just started working on a project with the api, using the JSON api, and I'm able to log in anonymously, and with the sessionid get all the public albums for a nick, but then if I try to images.get with one of the album ids I get:

"code": 5.0,"message": "system error","stat": "fail"

the url is (APIkey and SessionID removed):

http://api.smugmug.com/services/api/json/1.2.1/?method=smugmug.images.get&APIKey=_snipped_&AlbumId=3631897&SessionID=_snipped_

I'm new to the API, is there something I'm missing?

[edit] hmm. using (what I thought to be) the correct url:

http://api.smugmug.com/services/api/json/1.2.1/?method=smugmug.images.get&APIKey=_snipped_&AlbumId=3909775&AlbumKey=MNmpx&SessionID=_snipped_

I'm still getting identical errors... ideas?

[/edit]

I guess its http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=83919

though the api could do with sending more helpful error messages (considering the wiki documentation is hopeless out of date, not even mentioning that these functions have changed...)

Yes, the parmeter is AlbumID not AlbumId.

I am cleaning up a lot of these error messages for api version 1.2.2.

Perfect, thanks!
