Browser plugin and OpenAlex

bjohas · February 24, 2024

Hello,

Is anybody experiencing issues when using the browser plugin on OpenAlex? E.g., for
https://openalex.org/works?page=1&filter=default.search:climate change

I either get 'an error occurred' or it offers one publication that's not in the search results.

Any ideas?

You are just seeing 10 here https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues

OK - yes, it does say DOI. And thanks for the quick reply @adamsmith.

Would the right course of action be to request a translator? Or approach OpenAlex to expose more metadata on the search results page?

Yes, we can add a translator. As you know, the web GUI is pretty new

OK, yes, that would be super-cool. We being the Zotero team or Zotero community, right?

(And yeah, sorry for the impatience - OpenAlex is really cool, we've looked at it for while and recently tinkered with a typescript sdk https://github.com/OpenDevEd/openalex-sdk)
