Hi All,

In our quest to get small details right, we failed to include the doi field in the first version of the updated API and snapshots. Yes, just about the most important field (doh!). But we're fixing it quickly. It's already corrected in the API.

Unfortunately, if you subscribe to the snapshots this means we need to create another full export. We plan to do that tomorrow around 1:00PM EST, in order to give us time to review the data again more carefully. There will be no daily snapshot produced today.

We're sorry for the error and are excited about the overall improvements to Unpaywall. If you find any issues in the data format especially, please email us at sup...@unpaywall.org. You can see example records in the API like this: https://api.unpaywall.org/v2/10.1523/jneurosci.15-09-06260.1995?email=sup...@unpaywall.org

Thanks,
Casey

Hi All,

The latest full snapshot is available for subscribers. You can find it here: https://api.unpaywall.org/full-snapshot?api_key=myapikey

This snapshot includes the DOI field and other fixes.

Thanks,
Casey
