Request url: https://www.archivesportaleurope.net/ApeApi/#!/search/searchEadFindingAidNo
. This service is a POST-request.
This search-service delivers information on a specific finding aid for the requested finding aid number. The service also offers the possibility to request information on a combination of a specific finding aid number and a specific descriptive unit number of that particular finding aid.
Request parameters
Several request parameters can be used to do a search for a finding aid and a finding aid plus descriptive unit.
Empty Request example
{ "count": "5", "startIndex": 0, "findingAidNo": "string", "unitId": "string", "filters": [ { "facetFieldName": "string", "facetFieldIds": [ "string" ] } ], "dateFilters": [ { "dateFieldName": "string", "dateFieldId": "string" } ], "sortRequest": { "sortType": "asc", "fields": [ "string" ] } }
Basic Request example 1
{ "count": "5", "startIndex": 0, "findingAidNo": "2.13.80", "unitId": "", "filters": [ { "facetFieldName": "repository", "facetFieldIds": [ "2437" ] } ], "dateFilters": [ { "dateFieldName": "string", "dateFieldId": "string" } ], "sortRequest": { "sortType": "asc", "fields": [ "string" ] } }
This example searches for finding aid number "2.13.80" from the archival institution "Nationaal Archief" (= repository id: "2437"), without a request for a specific descriptive unit number of this finding aid, hence the empty "unitId".
Basic Request example 2
{ "count": "5", "startIndex": 0, "findingAidNo": "2.13.80", "unitId": "5", "filters": [ { "facetFieldName": "repository", "facetFieldIds": [ "2437" ] } ], "dateFilters": [ { "dateFieldName": "string", "dateFieldId": "string" } ], "sortRequest": { "sortType": "asc", "fields": [ "string" ] } }
This example searches for finding aid number "2.13.80" from the archival institution "Nationaal Archief" (= repository id: "2437") and within that finding aid for the specific descriptive unit number "5", hence the "unitId": "5".
count
The resultlist is delivered in chunks of a certain size. Request parameter "count" describes the number of results that are in one chunk. Optional. Default value is 5.
startIndex
Request parameter "startIndex" enables you to select the results that you want to have. Counting starts at zero. If "count" = 5, the second chunk starts with startIndex 5, the following at startIndex 10, etc. Optional. Default value is 0.
findingAidNo
Identifier of the fonds provided by the repository.
unitId
Original identifier of the information provided by the repository.
filters
Request parameter "filters" enables you to filter the result on facets. The facets are summarised in searchEad#facets.
dateFilters
Request parameters "dateFilters" enables you to filter the result on a certain period of time. The dateFacets are summarised in searchEad#date_facets
sortRequest
Request parameters "sortRequest" enables you to sort the result. The sortRequest contains two parameters: sortType and fields.
In "fields", you can provide a list of 1 or more fields. The resultlist is ordered on field[0] first, field[1] secondly, etc. The possible fields are:
- date: date of the archival material, provided in <unitdate>
- findingAidNo: number of the finding aid, provided by the repository in <eadid>
- title: description of the archival material, provided in <unittitle>
- referenceCode: identifier of the archival material, provided by the repository in <unitid>
In all situations you can sort ascending or descending by setting request parameter "sortType" "asc" or "desc" respectively.
Response parameters
The response contains a list of the descriptions where the requested search term(s) was/were found.
