Probably. :) > If so I can sees how to get the URI and Name and image but don't see how > to get the Description. If you mean by "Description" a brief text like those at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/#licenses there is no programmatic way; those are just translated in https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/CC with no lookup by license, but maybe that is something that ought be done by a CC programmer (none exist at this moment). Probably the closest existing thing to a description useful for programs other than the license name is the content found at a license URI, ie, the deed. Another approach would be to construct your own description by pretty-printing permits/requires/prohibits statements you find.
