Search Suggest Code Samples (Deprecated)

Use the code samples below as examples to create an application in your desired language. The following code samples use the /search/suggestions endpoint which allows you to execute a request for suggested content based on a query term or phrase. Get started and begin to understand the endpoint by following the examples below in the language of your choice.

 

# Search Suggestions:

curl -X GET "https://apis.ebsco.com/medsapi-dynamed/v1/search/suggestions?query=heart"
  -H "accept: application/json"
  -H "authorization: Bearer TOKEN"
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
// Search Suggestions:

// Construct the client
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();

// Create the URL
HttpUrl url = new HttpUrl.Builder()
    .scheme("https")
    .host("apis.ebsco.com")
    .addPathSegment("medsapi-dynamed")
    .addPathSegment("v1")
    .addPathSegment("search")
    .addPathSegment("suggestions")
    .addQueryParameter("query", "heart")
    .build();


// Build the request
Request request = new Request.Builder()
    .url(url)
    .get()
    .addHeader("Accept", "application/json")
    .addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer TOKEN")
    .addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")
    .build();

// Send the request
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
// Search Suggestions: 

const host = "https://apis.ebsco.com";
const path = "/medsapi-dynamed/v1/search/suggestions";
const queryParams = {
    query: "heart"
};

// Create the Request
const url = host + path;

const settings = {
    async: true,
    crossDomain: true,
    url: url,
    method: "GET",
    headers: {
        Accept: "application/json",
        Authorization: "Bearer TOKEN",
        Content-Type: "application/json"
    },
    data: queryParams
};

// Send the Request
$.ajax(settings).done(function (response) {
    console.log(response);
});
