exclude attribution from API response? #6

Closed danstoner closed 9 years ago

danstoner commented 9 years ago

Is it possible to exclude the "attribution" block from search query results?

If I am using the API to perform multiple searches and bundling those results together to make a CSV file, and especially if I am limiting the number of fields to improve performance (say I only want 3 or 4 fields like scientificname and geopoint), the attribution starts to dominate the volume of data being transferred over the wire and I am not going to use anything under attribution anyway.
