Yes, although one could just label a few important and frequently used datasets like the backbone and the Catalogue of Life.

Hi Markus,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have no preference on this. I guess as number of datasets increase the unique shortname's will start to get rather long.
Best, Scott

Hi,
Is there any further information on what a "shortname" - used in the API route
/species/root/{uuid|shortname}
described at https://www.gbif.org/developer/species
I assume "uuid|shortname" is uuid OR a shortname. So perhaps shortname is a short name for a dataset?
Thanks, Scott
