Collection of example scripts for interacting with the SciLifeLab Data Repository using the API.
The SciLifeLab Data Repository, powered by Figshare, is a repository for publishing any kind of research-related data, e.g. documents, figures, or presentations. Figshare is an open data repository used by researchers in numerous disciplines. Through an agreement with Figshare, SciLifeLab offers researchers and facilities the opportunity to upload and publish their research data through a dedicated portal.
The repository is operated by the SciLifeLab Data Centre. You can find detailed submission instructions here and reviewing guidelines here. The submissions are reviewed by a team of moderators at the SciLifeLab Data Centre. Feel free to get in touch with us with any question: [email protected].
In order to make it easier for new users to start using the API for programmatic access to the SciLifeLab Data Repository, we created this collection of example scripts. This repository consists of community submissions only. If you have a script that you would like to share with others, please make a pull request.
Documentation for Figshare API can be found here. To interact specifically with the SciLifeLab Data Repository, please create a personal token under your account -> Applications. The base URL is same as for Figshare in general.
