Mock sample for your project: CORE API v2
Integrate with "CORE API v2" from core.ac.uk in no time with Mockoon's ready to use mock sample
CORE API v2
core.ac.uk
Version: 2.0
Speed up your application development by using "CORE API v2" ready-to-use mock sample. Mocking this API will allow you to start working in no time. No more accounts to create, API keys to provision, accesses to configure, unplanned downtime, just work.
It also improves your integration tests' quality and reliability by accounting for random failures, slow response time, etc.
Description
You can use the CORE API to access the
resources harvested and enriched by CORE. If you encounter any problems with the API, please report them to us.
Overview
The API is organised by resource type. The resources are articles,
journals and repositories and are represented using JSON data format. Furthermore,
each resource has a list of methods. The API also provides two global methods for accessing all resources at once.
Response format
Response for each query contains two fields: status and data.
In case of an error status, the data field is empty. The data field contains a single object
in case the request is for a specific identifier (e.g. CORE ID, CORE repository ID, etc.), or
contains a list of objects, for example for search queries. In case of batch requests, the response
is an array of objects, each of which contains its own status and data fields.
For search queries the response contains an additional field totalHits, which is the
total number of items which match the search criteria.
Search query syntax
Complex search queries can be used in all of the API search methods.
The query can be a simple string or it can be built using terms and operators described in Elasticsearch
documentation.
The usable field names are title, description, fullText,
authors, publisher, repositories.id, repositories.name,
doi, oai, identifiers (which is a list of article identifiers including OAI, URL, etc.), language.name
and year. Some example queries:
title:psychology and language.name:English
repositories.id:86 AND year:2014
identifiers:"oai:aura.abdn.ac.uk:2164/3837" OR identifiers:"oai:aura.abdn.ac.uk:2164/3843"
doi:"10.1186/1471-2458-6-309"
Retrieving the latest Articles
You can retrieve the harvested items since specific dates using the following queries:
repositoryDocument.metadataUpdated:>2017-02-10
repositoryDocument.metadataUpdated:>2017-03-01 AND repositoryDocument.metadataUpdated:
Sort order
For search queries, the results are ordered by relevance score. For batch
requests, the results are retrieved in the order of the requests.
Parameters
The API methods allow different parameters to be passed. Additionally, there is an API key parameter which is common to all API methods. For all API methods
the API key can be provided either as a query parameter or in the request header. If the API key
is not provided, the API will return HTTP 401 error. You can register for an API key here.

Semantic API
The Semantic API uses concepts which are, by definition, terms in The New York Times controlled vocabulary. Like the way facets are used in the Articles API, concepts are a good way to uncover articles of interest in The New York Times archive, and at the same time, limit the scope and number of those articles. The Semantic API maps to external semantic data resources, in a fashion consistent with the idea of linked data. The Semantic API also provides combination and relationship information to other, similar concepts in The New York Times controlled vocabulary.
Veteran Confirmation
The API will only return “Confirmed” or “Not Confirmed”.
Quickstart Guide
1. Get Access Credentials
Get started by filling out the form on the Apply for VA Lighthouse Developer Access page.
After submitting a request, you will receive your credentials for using the API in the Development environment, which allows you to try it out with mock data before moving to the Production environment.
2. Test the API
In the endpoint documentation below, we've provided a curl command builder for trying out the API before implementation with your app.
Use Test User attributes to populate the request body.
3. Build your app
The base URI for the Veteran Confirmation API in the Sandbox environment is:
https://sandbox-api.va.gov/services/veteran_confirmation/v0
In this environment, use attributes from the list of Test Users. Only Test Users can return a "confirmed" response.
Check out some of our sample apps. Please visit our VA Lighthouse Support portal should you need further assistance.
4. Show us a demo and get access to the Production environment
After building your app, we ask that you give us a demo before we set you up with production credentials. Please see the Path to Production page for more details.
Authorization
This API requires an API key in combination with identifiable information for the person being confirmed listed below. API requests are authorized through a symmetric API token provided in an HTTP header with name apikey. Including more information has a better chance of making a match and returning a Confirmed status.
Required information:
First Name
Last Name
Date of Birth
Social Security Number
Optional information:
Middle Name
Gender
Reference
Sandbox vs. Production Data
APIs accessed via the Sandbox environment are using the same underlying logic as VA’s production APIs; only the underlying data store is different.
Master Veteran Index (MVI)
The Master Veteran Index confirms a user's identity. In Production, several factors are considered to confirm identity. These include: a user’s first name, last name, date of birth and Social Security number. The MVI is mocked in the Sandbox environment. In this environment, the only factor used to confirm identity is the Social Security number.
Rate Limiting
We implemented basic rate limiting of 60 requests per minute. If you exceed this quota, your request will return a 429 status code. You may petition for increased rate limits by emailing and requests will be decided on a case by case basis.

Authentication
All endpoints require an Auth Key to be passed in the header X-TBA-Auth-Key. If you do not have an auth key yet, you can obtain one from your Account Page.
A User-Agent header may need to be set to prevent a 403 Unauthorized error.
