API retrieval of the CHEBI ID for SabioEntryIDs fails

[Niels Zondervan]

Dear all,

I tried and failed to retrieve sabioRK entries including CHEBI IDs. I did manage to retrieve entries that match a query that specifies the reaction (EC number), metabolite and Parametertype.
The problem arises when I perform a post query to retrieving the a number of fields for a list of SabioEntryIDs. When I include the ChebiID field, the query will not return any values, without the field the query works fine.

query = {'format':'tsv', 'fields[]':['EntryID', 'Organism', 'UniprotID','ECNumber', 'Parameter','PubMedID,'EnzymeType', 'ChebiID']}

I think this might be a mistake in the API, if anyone sees a mistake in the query please let me know.

Regards,

Niels

Dear Niels,
thanks for reporting this problem.
Sorry, but with the current implementation it's really not possible to export the ChebiID.
We will work on it and fix the problem asap.

Best regards,

Dear Ulrike,

Is the problem with returning the ChebiID already fixed? If not, is it possible to give an estimate for the time that this feature will be implemented?
We currently use metabolite names to analyse the data retrieved from SabioRK, but as you can imagine this is far from ideal since different variations of metabolite names are used.

Regards,

Niels

Hi Niels,
we are currently still working on it and it will be available within the next days. We will let you know.
