Hi Markus,

 

Great to have the final version of the API available! I used it to find out metadata about datasets from the registry and I found some odd datasets.

 

For BioCASe/DiGIR/TAPIR endpoints, the conceptualSchema usually can be found in the machineTags of the respective endpoint, or in the machineTags of the dataset (e.g. http://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/88b04a08-f762-11e1-a439-00145eb45e9a).

 

But I came across many BioCASe/DiGIR/TAPIR endpoints with no according machineTag, for example

http://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/82c788c2-f762-11e1-a439-00145eb45e9a (BioCASe)

http://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/85275ce6-f762-11e1-a439-00145eb45e9a (DiGIR)

http://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/0e6799d0-13e6-11de-b2e1-b8a03c50a862 (TAPIR)

 

Is that intended? How is it possible to find out the conceptualSchema for these endpoints?

 

(I also found one endpoint that lacks the ‘url’ field, but I guess that’s just a freak:

http://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/3c7d6270-9681-11dc-8149-b8a03c50a862)

 

 

Cheers,

Jörg

Betreff: [API-users] GBIF API v1.0 live

 

Dear GBIF API users,

sorry for the far too long downtime today, but the good news is that version 1.0 of the API is finally live now!

http://api.gbif.org/v1/

 

You can find the updated documentation here as usual:

http://www.gbif.org/developer

 

The previous v0.9 API URL will still be running up to the end of August, serving the exact same content.


Hope you enjoy it.
with best wishes,

 

your GBIF dev team
