OntoPortal Documentation

Developer guide

All the content that the OntoPortal uses (and more!) is available via REST services by means users can:

  • access all OntoPortal ontologies, their different versions, and metadata for those versions;
  • access information about any ontology concept in OntoPortal (with definitions, synonyms, and other properties);
  • search across all ontologies in OntoPortal;
  • get hierarchy information for OntoPortal ontologies (such as parents, children, or siblings of a class, roots or leaves of a class hierarchy).
