Hello all,
I like to display an overview page for a distinct species like this: http://www.gbif.org/species/4827561 http://www.gbif.org/species/4827561
Is there a common request that collects these information with one roundtrip, or do I have to issue the specialized calls separately http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/4827561/ http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/4827561/speciesProfiles http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/4827561/synonyms …
A similar question arises, if i want to construct a breadcrumb for a given key, so I need the parent list *and* the target item. Is there a shortcut or are these two calls required (like i do now):
http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/4827561/parents http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/4827561/
I just want to make sure that I don’t generate more requests than necessary. So if there are any policies like max. request rate, or a recommended additional request header to identify the user agent, please let me know.
Thanks Martin
