Data Extraction Tool REST API
Discover Data Extraction REST API
Introduction
The CORDIS Data Extraction Tool REST API (DET API hereafter) is a programming interface intended for users who want to extract CORDIS data without using the regular interface. By using the API you can automate extractions based on your needs and feed the exported data directly to your applications.
For sporadic or low-volume exports please use the regular user interface, which is available to any user registered in CORDIS.
NB: Although the API is completely free of use, the Publications Office of the EU reserves the right to suspend temporarily or permanently the grants to those users that violate CORDIS website terms and conditions. CORDIS sets and enforces limits on your use of all its APIs (e.g. limiting the number of API requests that you may make or the number of users you may serve), in our sole discretion. You agree to, and will not attempt to circumvent, such limitations. If you would like to use any API beyond these limits, you must obtain CORDIS express consent (and CORDIS may decline such request or condition acceptance on your agreement to additional terms and/or charges for that use).
Before first use
The CORDIS DET API support page explains what it is and how to use it. Please visit this page (accessible to registered users) to obtain your API key, which is required for any use. If you think your key may have been compromised, you can always regenerate it from the same page by clicking on the refresh icon.
