RESTful Design

Standard REST endpoints with JSON responses for easy integration.

Comprehensive Coverage

Access to all research assistant, reference management, and writing features.

Authentication

Secure your API requests with bearer token authentication.

Generate API Key

Create an API key from your Paperguide account settings.

Include in Headers

Add the Authorization header to all API requests.

Handle Token Expiration

Implement token refresh logic for long-running applications.

curl -X GET \
'https://api.paperguide.com/v1/research' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'

import requests

headers = {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}

response = requests.get(
  'https://api.paperguide.com/v1/research',
  headers=headers
)

data = response.json()
print(f"Found {len(data['papers'])} papers")

const axios = require('axios');

const config = {
headers: {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
};

axios.get('https://api.paperguide.com/v1/research', config)
.then(response => {
  console.log(`Found ${response.data.papers.length} papers`);
})
.catch(error => {
  console.error('API request failed:', error);
});

Core Endpoints

Access paper search and analysis capabilities.

Rate Limits and Quotas

API requests are subject to rate limits to ensure fair usage. Check your account for specific limits.

Error Handling

Implement robust error handling for API requests.

import requests
from requests.exceptions import RequestException

try:
  response = requests.get('https://api.paperguide.com/v1/research', headers=headers)
  response.raise_for_status()
  
  data = response.json()
  # Process successful response
  
except requests.exceptions.HTTPError as e:
  if response.status_code == 401:
      print("Authentication failed. Check your API key.")
  elif response.status_code == 429:
      print("Rate limit exceeded. Wait before retrying.")
  else:
      print(f"HTTP error: {e}")
      
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
  print("Network connection error. Check your internet connection.")
  
except requests.exceptions.Timeout:
  print("Request timed out. Try again later.")
  
except ValueError:
  print("Invalid JSON response from API.")

const axios = require('axios');

axios.get('https://api.paperguide.com/v1/research', config)
.then(response => {
  // Process successful response
  console.log(response.data);
})
.catch(error => {
  if (error.response) {
    // Server responded with error status
    const status = error.response.status;
    if (status === 401) {
      console.error('Authentication failed. Check your API key.');
    } else if (status === 429) {
      console.error('Rate limit exceeded. Wait before retrying.');
    } else {
      console.error(`API error: ${status} - ${error.response.data.message}`);
    }
  } else if (error.request) {
    // Network error
    console.error('Network error. Check your connection.');
  } else {
    // Other error
    console.error('Request setup error:', error.message);
  }
});
