More details from API #22

Open karthik opened 7 years ago

filing this issue from an email thread from Jason so I don't forget later

I do appreciate your response. Yes, this a more detailed response, however, no it does not contain the fields I was looking for. I was not sure if the package produced responses similar to those from the api's documentation. I am looking for twitter timestamps for multiple articles, like the response here, for example: https://api. altmetric.com/docs/call_fetch.html.

Thank you.

The original user who asked this question probably already figured this out years ago, but details about the mentions themselves (e.g. Twitter timestamps, blog authors, Wikipedia editor names, etc) aren't available in the free API and thus are probably outside of the scope of this package.

Anyone interested in accessing that kind of data for noncommercial scientometrics research should check out the Altmetric Researcher Data Access Program instead. Through the Program, you can get access to a database snapshot file that includes a lot of (but not all) mention-related data.
