FR: TLDR as returned field in /paper/search/bulk? #161

Closed rwst closed 2 months ago

rwst commented 8 months ago

Is your feature request related to a specific use case or dataset? Concerning the /paper/search/bulk endpoint.

Problem Statement /paper/search/bulk can return title and abstract, but not TLDR

Proposed Solution Include TLDR as returned field.

Benefits & Impacts Around 40 per cent of biomedical papers don't have an abstract, so results returned from /paper/search/bulk on them are not very usable and need a second query to get at least the TLDR.

Alternative Solutions Considered As said above there is the workaround of a second call but it would help also if /paper/search/bulk would search in TLDR too even if TLDR is not returned.

What does you workaround look like? I'm currently only able to retrieve one paper tldr at a time using this endpoint https://api.semanticscholar.org/graph/v1/paper/{paper_id}, which takes forever. Is it possible to retrieve multiple tilde's at once? The documentation says this endpoint can return up to 10 MB of data at a time, which should imply that it can return info about multiple papers, but I don't know how to make it work. Sorry about my limited experience to all of this...

Get an API key to get fields for bulk of papers. See the API docs for the bulk endpoint.
