The major advantage is that API calls allow for programmatic, automated data flows, so that the data can be called into your own system, and remain current.</p> <p>The <strong>Details Page</strong> API focuses on a subset of the data we have about research outputs and mentions. It is a very powerful tool if you have the skills and resources needed to use it.</p> <p>The Details Page API allows you to find out everything you need to know about an individual research output (identified by DOI, PubMed ID or other scholarly identifier) or a wider range of results when querying using one or more journal ISSNs.</p> <p>This API works best when you have a list of output identifiers for which you want either the count of mentions <strong>Counts Only</strong> or the full text of mentions <strong>Full Access</strong>.</p> <div class="toctree-wrapper compound"> </div> <div class="toctree-wrapper compound"> </div> <div class="toctree-wrapper compound"> </div> </section> </div> </div> <footer><div class="rst-footer-buttons" role="navigation" aria-label="Footer"> <a href="getting-started.html" class="btn btn-neutral float-right" title="Access" accesskey="n" rel="next">Next <span class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right" aria-hidden="true"></span></a> </div> <hr/> <div role="contentinfo"> <p>© Copyright 2022, Altmetric LLC.</p> </div> Built with <a href="https://www.sphinx-doc.org/">Sphinx</a> using a <a href="https://github.com/readthedocs/sphinx_rtd_theme">theme</a> provided by <a href="https://readthedocs.org">Read the Docs</a>. </footer> </div> </div> </section> </div> <script> jQuery(function () { SphinxRtdTheme.Navigation.enable(true); }); </script> <style> /* Sidebar header (and topbar for mobile) */ .wy-side-nav-search, .wy-nav-top { background: #1a3d74; } </style> </body> </html>
