The list below documents the NCBO Web services. For questions on how to use these Web services or to request features, contact [mailto:support@bioontology.org Support].

NCBO BioPortal v4.0 REST services are documented at: http://data.bioontology.org/documentation

The '''prefix''' for all production service URLs in the table below is http://rest.bioontology.org/
 
−
 
 
−
* '''<font color='red'>Note</font>''': All NCBO Web services will be required to contain the parameter "apikey=YourApiKey" starting June 2011. The parameter will be added to all Web service calls for the April 27, 2011 release but will not be required until June 2011. To obtain an API key, login to BioPortal and go to "Account" where your API key will be displayed. The addition of the API key replaces the use of the email parameter.
 
−
 
 
−
* '''''Note for Application Developers''''': Application developers will also need to include the apikey parameter on all NCBO Web service calls. This allows us to track usage of our system at the level of an application. To obtain an API key, login to BioPortal and go to "Account" where your API key will be displayed. The addition of the API key replaces the use of the email parameter.

* '''Note''': ''Signatures for BioPortal services have changed in BioPortal 2.0.4 release on January 13th, 2009. This page has the new service URLs.

= Services to access ontology views and ontology view versions =
 
−
 
 
−
Since all the views on ontologies are ontologies themselves all the services that work on ontologies do
 
−
work for ontology views also with the same signature.
 
−
 
 
−
For example to get a specific ontology view based on a version id would be possible by using the signature:
 
−
 
 
−
'''./ontologies/download/{view version id}?apikey={YourAPIKey}'''
 
−
 
 
−
or for getting all view versions of a virtual view can be achieved called using the signature:
 
−
 
 
−
'''./ontologies/versions/{view id}?apikey={YourAPIKey}'''
 
−
 
 
−
However, there are a couple of services that are special for views:
 
−
 
 
−
== List all the latest version of views ==
 
−
'''NOTE''': ''To be released in BioPortal version 2.2''
 
−
* '''Signature''': ./views?apikey={YourAPIKey}
 
−
* '''Example''': http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/views?apikey=YourAPIKey
 
−
 
 
−
== Get all versions of views from a virtual ontology id ==
 
−
'''NOTE''': ''To be released in BioPortal version 2.2''
 
−
* '''Description''': Returns all versions of views defined on the latest version a virtual ontology, grouped by virtual view ids.
 
−
* '''Signature''': ./views/versions/{ontology id}?apikey={YourAPIKey}
 
−
* '''Example''': http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/views/versions/1104?apikey=YourAPIKey

= Search services =
 
−
 
 
−
==  Search BioPortal ==
 
−
* '''Signature''': ./search/{query}[?{optional args}]&apikey={YourAPIKey}
 
−
* '''Alt Signature''': ./search/?query={uri-encoded query}[&{optional args}]&apikey={YourAPIKey}
 
−
* '''Example''': http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/search/Gene?apikey=YourAPIKey
 
−
* '''Optional arguments:'''
 
−
** ontologyids=<ontologyid>,<ontologyid>… - limits the search to specific ontologies (default: all ontologies)
 
−
** isexactmatch=[1/0] – match the entire concept name (default: 0)
 
−
** includeproperties=[1/0] – include attributes in the search (default: 0)
 
−
** pagesize=<pagesize> - the number of results to display in a single request (default: all)
 
−
** pagenum=<pagenum> - the page number to display (pages are calculated using <total results>/<pagesize>) (default: 1)
 
−
** maxnumhits=<maxnumhits> - the maximum number of top matching results to return (default: 1000)
 
−
** subtreerootconceptid=<uri-encoded conceptid> - narrow the search to concepts residing in a sub-tree, where the "subtreerootconceptid" is the root node. This feature requires a SINGLE <ontologyid> passed in using the "onotlogyids" parameter.
 
−
** objecttypes=<class,individual,property> - limits the results returned to these types, multitple types can be included in the parameter, e.g. class,individual.
 
−
** includedefinitions={true} - if a search result is a hit for a term, adding this parameter will include the definition in the search result xml. '''Note''': Including the definition results in a slight performance hit.
 
−
* '''Description:'''
 
−
The search attempts to match both partial and exact queries, giving more weight to exact matches. In single-word searches, the wildcard character (*) is automatically appended to the end of the word. For example, searching for "lun" would return all concepts whose name contains a word that begins with "lun" (i.e. "Lung", "Murine Lunate Bone", "Base of the Lung", etc).
 
−
 
 
−
In phrase searches (multiple words), the wildcard character is appended to the end of each word. For example, searching for "cut mela" would return all concepts whose name contains a word starting with "cut", followed by any word that begins with "mela" (i.e. "Cutaneous Melanoma", "Metastatic Non-Cutaneous Melanoma", "Cutaneous Melanoma Clinical TNM Finding", etc).

* '''Signature''': ./concepts/{ontology version id}/{concept id}?apikey={YourAPIKey}
 
−
* '''Alt Signature''': ./concepts/{ontology version id}?conceptid={uri-encoded concept id}&apikey={YourAPIKey}
 
−
* '''Virtual Signature''' (always uses most recent version of the ontology): ./virtual/ontology/{ontology virtual id}/{concept id}
 
−
* '''Alt Virtual Signature''' (always uses most recent version of the ontology): ./virtual/ontology/{ontology virtual id}?conceptid={uri-encoded concept id}
 
−
**To ensure that the Web service works within your application, use the Alt signature as some ontologies may contain terms where the concept id is a URI.
 
−
* '''Optional arguments:'''
 
−
** light=[1/0] - when set to 1, returns the "light" version of XML with only a basic info for the concept and its immediate children
 
−
** norelations=[1/0] - when set to 1, returns only the requested term information (id, label, fullid, type, synonyms, definitions) without the "relations" map. This is useful when you need to quickly retrieve just the base information about a term.
 
−
** maxnumchildren - an integer that sets threshold on the number of children in the SubClass relation for a term. If a term contains more children than the "maxnumchildren", the SubClass relation returns an empty list. The ChildCount relation still contains the correct number of children.

== Changes to the Get all terms service ==
 
−
 
 
−
Starting in BioPortal 2.3.1 (released March 15, 2010), the 'Get all terms' service has changed to support speedier and more complete term retrieval. To support this, several changes to the response XML and service signature are being made. Please see the following notes to update your existing applications to support these changes.
 
−
 
 
−
* '''Examples''': A preview of the new service can be seen on the NCBO staging site:
 
−
** http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/concepts/40644/all?pagesize=50&pagenum=1
 
−
** http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/concepts/42431/all?pagesize=50&pagenum=500
 
−
 
 
−
* '''Signature'''
 
−
** '''New parameters:''' Previously, offset and limit were used to control pagination of results. These parameters have been replaced as follows:
 
−
*** '''pagesize:''' An integer limiting how many results will be returned on a single page (a 'page' is equivalent to a single call to the REST service)
 
−
*** '''pagenum:''' An integer indicating which page of results to return.
 
−
*** '''maxnumchildren:''' An integer that sets threshold on the number of children in the SubClass relation for a term. If a term contains more children than the "maxnumchildren", the SubClass relation returns an empty list. The ChildCount relation still contains the correct number of children.
 
−
 
 
−
* '''Response''': The structure of the new 'Get all terms' response XML has been brought into line with other BioPortal REST term services. In addition, to assist in paging through result sets, 'page' metadata is provided. A list of classBeans is provided in the classBeanResultList element, which includes each classes' set of relations (examples of relations include SuperClass, SubClass, and rdfs:label). Please see the example below for a full demonstration of the new response.

−
** pagenum=<pagenum> - the page number to display (pages are calculated using <total results>/<pagesize>) (default: 1)

=  Hierarchy Services =
 
−
 
 
−
The Hierarchy Services provide access to pre-computed term hierarchy information via a single web service call. The pre-computed hierarchy data is generated for only one version of an ontology and is periodically updated. Therefore, if using the Hierarchy Web services, it is best to use the form of the call with the virtual ontology id. To get hierarchy information for any version of an ontology, use the Term Web service to traverse the ontology structure.
