Paper ID for merging about rscopus

[muschellij2]

Can you say which functions? Which do not have the paper ID? Does the API output this/

[agbarnett]

Sorry, the author_df function. I think the field is scopus_id, or perhaps UT.

[muschellij2]

I've changed things around a bit and now you should be able to get the sufficient data. After re-installing rscopus, the following should give you the scopus_id:

res = author_df(last_name = "Muschelli", 
	first_name = "John")
res$`dc:identifier`

Note, however, some of the column names are gone from before. This is due to how I'm parsing author_data output. If you want the old way (which still doesn't have the data you want), use author_df_orig. Now, if you want all the data converted from the entries, use:

res = author_data(last_name = "Muschelli", 
	first_name = "John")
names(res$full_data)
head(res$full_data$df)
head(res$full_data$affiliation)

which can be merged using entry_number.

Thanks, but unfortunately scopus.id is the same as author.id, so it's the author's Scopus identifier, not the paper's identifier. As an example using

rawb = bibliometrix::retrievalByAuthorID(id='40462056100', api_key = my.api.key)$M
str(rawb[1,])

Which gives the UT column with the paper's ID

'data.frame':	1 obs. of  17 variables:
 $ AU   : chr "HAAKONSEN SMITH C.;TURBITT E.;MUSCHELLI J.;LEONARD L.;LEWIS K.;FREEDMAN B.;MURATORI M.;BIESECKER B."
 $ TI   : chr "FEASIBILITY OF COPING EFFECTIVENESS TRAINING FOR CAREGIVERS OF CHILDREN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER: A GENETI"| __truncated__
...
 $ UT   : chr "SCOPUS_ID:85028874240"
...

Scopus ID is not the same when I run it:

res = author_df(au_id = "40462056100")

Many thanks. I was still running the old version.
