Hi there, I'm trying to access 'Date added to DOAJ' via the API.

If I use:
https://doaj.org/api/v1/search/journals/issn:1076-156X to access Journal of World-Systems Research I get 'oa_start':{'year':1995}

However the web page for that journal (https://doaj.org/toc/1076-156X) shows date added to DOAJ as 15 October 2003.

Does oa_start equate to date added to DOAJ? If so, I'm unable to explain the discrepancy.

Is it in fact possible to get the full date via API?

Thanks

Dominic Mitchell

Hello David

Date added to DOAJ is "created_date", which we believe appears in the API.

Hope that helps!

Can I ask a further question please? If a journal *leaves* the DOAJ does it get removed from the data?

Many thanks

Dave

Yes! We unpublish the journal entry and the article get unpublished too.
