Citation Graph

kunzmaniac · July 21, 2014

Hey,

is there any chance of getting a citation graph for our Zotero libraries? I imagine interactively dragging a Paper from a collection to the top and all seeing the citation hierarchy of the rest of the papers below. Well technically this would not be a huge problem, but is there any possibility of getting the connection info, i.e. 'who-cites-who'?

no. That data isn't save anywhere in Zotero nor is there any field for it in the database.
It'd be feasible, theoretically, as an add-on with a separate database, though it'd likely have to rely on data from WoS or so and I don't believe they have API access.

Ahhh, too bad - that really would help with understanding big projects a lot. I am currently doing this on a whiteboard - quite 19 cent.

I assume you mean Web of Science, the reuters service. Yeah unfortunately no open data. It's a pitty google gets its info from them too - so no solution in sight :(

Hi,
@adamsmith I don't know if currently there is no access to WoS API (https://support.clarivate.com/ScientificandAcademicResearch/s/article/Web-of-Science-URLs-to-access-documentation-for-Web-Services-and-other-informational-webpages?language=en_US), but references for specific areas could be get from distinct sources like PubMed for medical journals (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/home/develop/api/) or other (https://guides.lib.berkeley.edu/information-studies/apis). Is there some chance this feature be implemented at some point?
