Documents Response Field
The documents field will be populated if there are any meta documents to return. Each document has the following fields:
- hasFullText – boolean that indicates whether a given document has full text available.
- inHoldings – boolean that indicates whether a given document is in the current library’s holdings.
- availabilityToken – optional – a string that identifies a given document’s lookup key for use with the Availability API.
- openUrl – an OpenURL describing a given document.
- fields – the fields in the document. In XML format, this is the only list in the document object. Therefore, the field elements are all direct children of the document.
Each field in the fields list has a name and a list of values. The values may be either plain strings or a custom micro format. The micro formats are parsed in the response so even though micro formats are XML. They will be returned as JSON when response type is JSON. Some documents will have thumbnails available. Thumbnail URLs are returned in the thumbnail_s, thumbnail_m and thumbnail_l fields. Thumbnails may be referenced directly in the rendered page, and do not require another API call. If a request is made for a thumbnail that no longer exists, a redirect will be returned to a 1x1px transparent gif.
