The Metapsy API

It is possible to access the MetaCIH databases via a simple Application Programming Interface (API), which is maintained by Metapsy.

Two GET requests are defined. The list_data request allows to retrieve a summary of all available databases. The get_data request retrieves raw data and metadata of a specific database (current or in the past).

All response bodies are JSON encoded. No authentication is required to use the API. The API has a rate limit, and we kindly ask users to restrict requests to once per minute, if possible.
