Search query

query

Optional

Keywords to search OpenAlex works for (title, abstract and fulltext are searched), e.g. "machine learning", "crispr gene editing". Required.

Type:string

Sort by

sort

Optional

How to order results: Relevance (best match for the query), Citations (most-cited first), or Date (newest first).

Type:string

Default:relevance

Options:

relevancecitationsdate

From publication date

fromDate

Optional

Optional. Only return works published on or after this date (YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. 2023-01-01). Adds a from_publication_date filter.

Type:string

Raw OpenAlex filter (advanced)

filter

Optional

Optional advanced filter passed straight to the OpenAlex API filter param. Comma-separated key:value pairs, e.g. "type:article,is_oa:true,from_publication_date:2023-01-01". See the OpenAlex docs for available filter keys. Merged with From publication date.

Type:string

Max works

maxItems

Optional

Maximum number of works to return. Cursor pagination fetches 50 per page until this many unique works are collected.

Type:integer

Minimum:1

Maximum:10000

Default:100

Notion connector (optional)

notionConnector

Optional

Optional. Write each result as a page into your Notion when the run finishes. Authorize a Notion connector once in Settings → API & Integrations → MCP connectors, then pick it here. Leave empty to skip (default) — results are always saved to the dataset regardless.

Type:string

Notion target data source ID

notionParentId

Optional

Optional. The Notion data source ID of the database to write into (only used if a Notion connector is set). Leave empty to create the pages privately in your workspace instead.

Type:string

Proxy (optional)

proxyConfiguration

Optional

OPTIONAL. The OpenAlex API is a public, no-auth JSON API with a generous polite pool (this actor sends a mailto and User-Agent to use it), so no proxy is needed and the default routes traffic directly, saving proxy credits. Only enable Apify Proxy if you hit IP rate limits at very high volume.

Type:object

Default:

{
  "useApifyProxy": false
}
