LitStudy - Scopus400 Error: Exceeds the maximum number allowed for the service level #300

Closed SS159 closed 8 months ago

SS159 commented 9 months ago

When using the LitStudy package, which calls on pybliometrics to enrich paper metadata via Scopus, 'Scopus400 Error: Exceeds the maximum number allowed for the service level' is being returned. The enforced maximum seems to be only 180 papers - is this correct? Is there a problem with my API key? ([00f8fa3132f9ffe91592b3fade8c10c6])

I can't replicate your problem. Everything seems to be fine with your API key (you should hide it BTW). Could you post the entire code here please?

The maximum number of results is 5k but only applies for non-subscribers (i.e., the only free view). Doesn't seem to be the case here.

The most likely cause is an insufficient subscription of your institution. See https://pybliometrics.readthedocs.io/en/stable/access.html for details. Initially I was just confused bco the error message.
