Filter funders

You can filter funders with the filter parameter:

• Get funders that are located in Canada https://api.openalex.org/funders?filter=country_code:ca

It's best to read about filters before trying these out. It will show you how to combine filters and build an AND, OR, or negation query

/funders attribute filters

You can filter using these attributes of the Funder entity object (click each one to view their documentation on the Funder object page):

• cited_by_count

• country_code

• grants_count

• ids.openalex (alias: openalex)

• ids.ror (alias: ror)

• ids.wikidata (alias: wikidata)

• summary_stats.2yr_mean_citedness (accepts float, null, !null, can use range queries such as < >)

• summary_stats.h_index (accepts integer, null, !null, can use range queries)

• summary_stats.i10_index (accepts integer, null, !null, can use range queries)

• works_count
