Google Cloud Vision | LABEL_DETECTION Example

This is an example to illustrate a way to utilise Google Cloud Vision API from Node-RED. To evaluate this flow, you have to enable the Google Cloud Vision API and get an API key. Please edit the Twitter node (i.e. configured to search #google by default) as you like and replace API_KEY in the Set node with your's.
