Search Crossref works and export DOI, citation, author, publisher, journal, type, date, license, and reference metadata.

This HTTP-only Apify Actor uses the public Crossref REST API. It needs no customer login, cookie, proxy, or third-party API subscription.

Quick start

  1. Enter a focused query and optional filters.
  2. Keep the result limit small for the first run.
  3. Click Start and export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, or HTML.
{
"query": "machine learning",
"maxItems": 25,
"sort": "relevance",
"order": "desc"
}

Useful workflows

  • Literature and prior-art discovery
  • DOI enrichment for research datasets
  • Citation and publisher monitoring

Reliability and billing design

  • Inputs and pagination are bounded to prevent accidental runaway jobs.
  • Temporary rate limits and server errors are retried with exponential backoff.
  • Unexpected source response shapes fail the run instead of producing a misleading empty success.
  • Duplicate source records are removed within a run.
  • Each successfully written dataset row is ready for a future pay-per-result event; source errors are never charged as results.
  • The runtime stops cleanly when an Apify maximum-charge limit is reached.
