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

<div class="">Hi Markus, <br class="">
</div>
<div class="">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.<br class="">

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

Thanks, Scott<br class="">
