Docs request: significance of `email` #28

Closed jamesbraza closed 1 year ago

jamesbraza commented 1 year ago

Can we add more details on the email parameter of EntrezAPI?

I found using fake@hello.com worked fine, my request went through. Is email really a required part of the payload to send?

This is documented in https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK25497/.
