Version 2.1 of OAI-PMH API

OAI-PMH

Published

March 28, 2025

New AMCR OAI-PMH API version is released together with updated schema. This version reacts to development of AMCR and its v1.1.0 release (see changelog), major change being introduction of persistent identifiers (DOIs, IGSNs etc.) Changes to the API are mostly related to the addition of elements with PIDs and some minor changes to the handling of spatial data. All changes are marked by comments with “v2.1” string in the XSD schema.

Data following the old (v2.0) schema remain available under https://api.aiscr.cz/2.0/oai endpoint, while data following the new (v2.1) schema are available under https://api.aiscr.cz/2.1/oai endpoint. The data are automatically transformed to the respective schema using XSLT for all records.

Default endpoint (https://api.aiscr.cz/oai) returns data in the most recent version of the schema, i.e. the schema version used in the time of the last update of the specific record.
