Get lists of entities

See the API overview for info on API pagination, authentication, etc.
It's easy to get a list of entity objects from from the API:/<entity_name>. Here's an example:
Get a list of all the concepts in OpenAlex:
https://api.openalex.org/concepts​
This query returns a meta object with details about the query, a results list of Concept objects, and an empty group_by list:
1
meta: {
2
    count: 64,843,
3
    db_response_time_ms: 11,
4
    page: 1,
5
    per_page: 25
6
    },
7
results: [
8
    // long list of Concept entities
9
 ],
10
group_by: [] // empty
Copied!
Listing entities is a lot more useful when you add parameters to filter, search, sort them. Keep reading to learn how to do that.
