We want to hear from you!

Join us as we delve into the makings and workings of the OpenAIRE Graph.

Every month, on the third Wednesday from 11:00-12:00 CET, the OpenAIRE Graph team will host an online conference call open to all in the research community.

This 3-part series exploring Use Cases & API, New Developments, and How it Works is an opportunity to present and discuss recent developments in the OpenAIRE Graph and the ways you can best harness it for your projects. Join us in open discussion and give us your feedback about the vast knowledge graph and how we can better the service for your needs.

  • Timeline: These meetings are held every month and are open to all to register. They will last an hour and will provide a perfect opportunity to answer any questions with our experts – about uses, the backend, updates… the floor is yours.

  • Structure: The meetings will have a generic structure with a particular topic of interest each time.
    1. Introductions and relevant updates (5 min.)

Upcoming Calls

16 October 2024

Topic: Unveiling the New OpenAIRE Graph API

The OpenAIRE Graph is one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of research metadata worldwide. We have been working on enhancing our API to make it even more powerful and user-friendly. In this session, OpenAIRE Development and Operation Director, Thanasis Vergoulis, will introduce you to the new Graph API and its features, including:

    • Simplified JSON Responses: More compact and easier for scripts to consume, facilitating the development of value-added services.
    • Enhanced Compatibility: Full alignment with the published OpenAIRE Graph data model.
    • Expanded Functionalities: New options based on user feedback, such as filtering results by related organisations.

This session will also include a presentation on the Beta Testing phase. We especially encourage our beta testers to join and share their feedback related to their use cases.

Whether you're a developer, researcher, or simply interested in the advancements of Open Science, this call will provide valuable insights into how the new Graph API can enhance your work.

We look forward to your participation and feedback!
