Swagger API v3.0

Scholexplorer models relationships as links between pairs of research products, defined as source and target. Links are further characterized by the type of the two products (publication, dataset, software, or other), the date of publishing (typically the date of the source product), the publisher of the two products (a string), and the PID of the products (or the OpenAIRE ID, useful when the product does not come with a PID).

More specifically, here is the list of API parameters:

  • sourcePublisher Identifies the publisher of the source entity.
  • targetPublisher Identifies the publisher of the target entity.
  • sourceType The typology of the source entity like: Publication, Dataset, Software Other
  • targetType The typology of the target entity like: Publication, Dataset, Software Other

Optional parameters:
