API Documentation

This documentation is intended for developers to access the content of re3data.org.

re3data.org supports the retrievial of its content via API. Currently the platform offers a simple open search implementation as well as a first version of a RESTful interface.

Despite having HATEOAS in focus for the RESTful interface, the different APIs are versioned via URL and not via Accept-Header. This should make it easier to consume the data, since the client can be less smart.

The interfaces can be accessed via
http://www.re3data.org/api/<api identifier>

Feedback and suggestions, especially bug reports and feature requests about the API are highly appreciated. Feel free to send an email to info@re3data.org
