oa_ngrams is not working due to openalex api #281

Open adrientaudiere opened 2 months ago

adrientaudiere commented 2 months ago

I rerun some script that worked a few weeks ago, and it seems that oa_ngrams is broken. I tried the example from the help page and it returns nothing. Maybe the ngrams api of openalex is no longer available as discuss in their documentation.

ngrams_data <- oa_ngrams(
    works_identifier = c("W1964141474", "W1963991285"),
    verbose = TRUE
)

Thanks - we're aware of this problem and watching it closely! Since they say "The n-gram API endpoint is not currently in service", that seems to suggest it'll come back online - we can leave this issue open to track this.

BTW @trangdata do you know if OpenAlex have a status dashboard of sorts for their services that we can query/scrape?

@yjunechoe Hmm do you mean a published table where we can see which endpoints are available? I can ask!

Yeah - something like GitHub status! https://www.githubstatus.com/

Ok, thank you kindly for your reactivity and this R package.
