  Hi Cherry,

  We would love to incorporate a Microsoft Academic Search "sidebar" into the free version of the Qiqqa research management desktop client.  

  However, this seems impossible at the moment both because the client key gets sent in plain text over JSON/SOAP (perhaps you could support SSL?), and because client requests are limited to 200 requests per client key - not scalable for end user use.

  Do you have a timeframe when a more application-friendly version of the API might be available?
  

  Thanks,

  James

  Hi Jimme,

  We are currently investigating ways that we can improve our API, so thanks for the suggestions here.  Will we'll look into both of these issues, but I am not able to provide a timeframe for an update.

  Thanks,

  I am a programmer at a university library. 

  Thanks for providing an API; it is something that could distinguish you from Google Scholar. 

  However, your API responses are, I think, unless i'm missing them,  missing a couple elements that I would need for several use cases to create software using MS Academic to help our library's users. 

  1. Citation information. Not only ISSN, and DOI or pubMed ID if present, but also volume, issue, and page number, are important for uniquely identifying a citation so we can integrate into our systems. I know MS Academic doesn't always have these details for every citation -- but for some citations, it does, it shows these details on the HTML search results screen -- but I don't think they are included in the API response. They ought to be, and it would seriously expand the utility of the API. 

  2. Links.  In the HTML interface, there is sometimes a button-style link in the right column linking to either PDF or HTML.  But these links are not exposed in the API either. This is one of the most useful things MS Academic could provide.  Include the link URLs in the API response for each hit, as well as indication of whether it's a PDF or generic type link. 

  Despite the API, I am considering trying to 'screen scrape' the HTML interface instead, to get these elements.

  Also, the above post says:

  "When displaying the links you must also show the publisher icons returned with the link."

  But nothing in the API documentation PDF linked mentions these "publisher icons". What are these, and how are they returned by the api?

  Hi,

  I'm trying to retrieve responses for the ConferenceAndJournalInfo type, for a given search topic, with the API. The code I'm using worked last month, but after several attempts today, it's not returning any results. Could anyone help me and point me in the right direction? Thanks!

  Here's an excerpt of the code:

  request.ResultObjects = APIServiceClient.ObjectType.Conference;
  request.FulltextQuery = "some topic";
  request.StartIdx = 1;
  request.EndIdx = 10;
  
  request.PublicationContent = new APIServiceClient.PublicationContentType[] 
  { 
       APIServiceClient.PublicationContentType.ConferenceAndJournalInfo
  };
   APIServiceClient.Response response = client.Search(request);
  
   foreach (var p in response.Conference.Result)
   {
  // do something here with p

   }

  Any success requesting the AppID anyone?

  Everything around this API looks a little bit obfuscated.

  Can somebody explain why I can't use the API to crawl a significant part of the corpus? If I limit my request to under 200 per minute, what's the problem?

  Hi,

  I am using JSON to access the MAS API. I want to find a specific author and so am using the following request:
  
  http://academic.research.microsoft.com/json.svc/search?AppId=[MyAppID]&AuthorQuery=[FirstName]+[LastName]&ResultObjects=Author&StartIdx=1&EndIdx=10
  
  The problem I am having is that this returns a number of extraneous author names, of which there is no obvious connection to the author in question.
  
  Could someone please tell me:
  1. Is this the appropriate way to search for a specific author?
  2. How to interpret the results, assuming this is the correct way to search?
  
  Many thanks,
  Melanie

  I'd be interested in using the API to chart "publications coming out of an institution", over time. Subtly different from "publications from authors currently affiliated with an institution", as authors move. 

  The challenge is that publications are associated with individuals, not institutions (according to the docs), and that authors only list current affiliations.

  The info should be accessible to MAS, as the publications themselves generally list the affiliations of the authors, at the time the paper is published. Any chance we could get access to that info? 

  I could see 3 strategies for doing so:

  1. Make the 'affiliation' field of each 'author' into an array, with years associated with each affiliation

  2. Give each 'Publication' an 'affiliation' array of equal length to the 'author' array

  3. Give each 'Organization' a 'Publications' array.

  Thanks!

  James

  Hi all,

  First of all congratulations to MS for this API. It's very useful.

  Two ideas:

  1. It would be faster (I suppose) if the HTTP compression was enabled  for the json API.

  2. When querying for an object (e.g. author), it would be nice if the API accepts multiple values, eg: AuthorID=123,234,345 so with one request multiple objects may be fetched.

  Thanks again for the API.

  About how long can it take to get a response from an AppID request?  I requested one about 24 hours ago.  What can I say, I'm excited to get started.
