Seems that svde.org backend is down! Search form is displayed, but search functionality doesn’t work.
kubikat-lod.org is erroneous, too.
natbib-lod works correct!
Hi Sascha,
thanks for your message. Our technical team is investigating on svde.org.
Concerning kubikat-lod.org, the home page is active but the pilot project is not current, so that’s why you cannot perform searches.
Kindest regards,
Anna
Hi Anna,
thanks for the immediate reply!
I played around with Share Family search API and have some (esp. SVDE QL related) questions. Is this the right place here for posting?
Thanks to you Sascha!
In the meantime svde.org is back up and running.
Please do post your questions about APIs. I’m tagging @a.gazzarini who should be able to give you exhaustive answers.
Thanks!
I try to enrich an architecture database (archinform.net) with literature links.
As authority data I use Wikidata identifiers (Qxxxx).
For person and organizations (agents) I already created a relation table to VDE by requesting the related VDEID id with
“https//\svde.org/agents.json?q=agents whose identifier matches Qxxxx”
and then requested titles by this author with
“https//\svde.org/publications.json? q=publications whose contributor is https//\www.svde.org/agents/VDEID in any role”
This works perfect.
But I also want to get titles about the persons/organizations (subject of the publication). Trying it with
“https//\svde.org/publications.json? q=publications whose contributor is https//\www.svde.org/agents/VDEID”
doesn’t work. It seems to be necessary therefore to use specific subjects with an own ID, that contains the agent ID as concept. But I can’t find out, how to get this subject ID 
I would expect a query liky this one:
“https//\svde.org/subjects.json? q=subjects whose concept is https://www.svde.org/agents/VDEID”
But this doesn’t work (seems that for subjects only full text query is possible). Is there another way to achieve this?
PS: I encrypted the links in this post a little bit because forum software complains that new users only allowed to post 2 links.
Hi, @sascha unfortunately what you’re trying to do is not allowed in the current implementation. The URI the API expect is the Share-VDE URI.
This is more clear if you have a look at the UI, where in the advanced search page, the contributor clause uses an autocompletion widget which allows you to type and select a contributor. Once selected, behind the scene, the UI uses the Share-VDE URI to form the clause object. For example
publications whose contributor is https://svde.org/agents/8293728937
I would create a new ticket for this feature. Let me know if you have the proper rights in JIRA otherwise I can create it.
Sorry, but there is an (misleading) error in my post:
I tried queries like
“https//\svde.org/publications.json? q=publications whose subject is https//\www.svde.org/agents/VDEID”
These queries fail (quering for “contributor is …” works good).
And yes, it would be great if You could extent the implementation to support this.
