Get a single funder

It's easy to get a funder from from the API with: /funders/<entity_id>. Here's an example:
That will return a Funder object, describing everything OpenAlex knows about the funder with that ID:
{
"id": "https://openalex.org/F4320332161",
"display_name": "National Institutes of Health",
"alternate_titles": [
"US National Institutes of Health",
"Institutos Nacionales de la Salud",
"NIH"
],
// other fields removed for brevity
}
You can make up to 50 of these queries at once by requesting a list of entities and filtering on IDs using OR syntax.

You can look up funders using external IDs such as a Wikidata ID:
Available external IDs for funders are:
