<p>Hi Keith,</p>
<p>There is indeed a hidden "redirect on single result" parameter.
You can use it like this:</p>
<p><a
href="https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?occurrence_id=urn:catalog:USF:Herb:261924&advanced=1">https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/first?occurrence_id=urn:catalog:USF:Herb:261924</a></p>
We are thinking of improving the API so users know what the GBIF ID
would be (i.e. a combination of datasetKey and occurrenceId), but if
that happens it will be next year some time.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Matt<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My question concerns both the API and the
GBIF website…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">GBIF is aware of and ingests all of my
specimen/occurrence data via a Darwin Core archive on our IPT
instance. The information flow is one-way, however, so I don’t
know GBIF’s internal, unique identifier (e.g. gbifID =
1503266467) which I need to know if I want to create a direct
link to the occurrence page (e.g. <a
href="https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1503266467"
moz-do-not-send="true">
https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1503266467</a>).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Using the API, I can obtain the gbifID via
an API query such as
<a
href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?occurrenceId=urn:catalog:USF:Herb:261924"
moz-do-not-send="true">
http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?occurrenceId=urn:catalog:USF:Herb:261924</a>
(the UUID we’re currently using, soon to be replaced with a
GUID) and I could batch process all of my occurrence records
and store these ids (or do a real-time API lookup and redirect
users).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And using the Advanced Search I can link to
<a
href="https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?occurrence_id=urn:catalog:USF:Herb:261924&advanced=1"
moz-do-not-send="true">
https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?occurrence_id=urn:catalog:USF:Herb:261924&advanced=1</a>
and get the single record in the search result.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m curious to know if the GBIF website has
any hidden (to me) auto-redirect capabilities that will send
users to the matching occurrence page? Possibly a
“redirectOnSingleResult=true” query string value that performs
a redirect?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
