filter parameter:- Get publishers that are hierarchy level 0 https://api.openalex.org/publishers?filter=hierarchy_level:0

You can filter using these attributes of the
Publisher entity object (click each one to view their documentation on the Publisher object page):These filters aren't attributes of the
Publisher object, but they're included to address some common use cases:Returns: publishers that are located in the chosen continent.
- Get publishers that are located in South America https://api.openalex.org/publishers?filter=continent:south_america
Value: a search string
Returns: institutions with a
display_name containing the given string; see the search page for details.- Get publishers with names containing "elsevier":

In most cases, you should use the
search parameter instead of this filter because it uses a better search algorithm.Last modified 1mo ago
