Why use this actor

183M+ works (verified) — pull the whole corpus or a slice by type, date, or query.
One work per row, with a flat header (doi, title, type, publisher, is_referenced_by_count) plus the full raw Crossref object (authors, references, license, funder, …).
No login, no key. Add your email to join Crossref's faster "polite pool".

Input

Field	Type	Description
`worksType`	dropdown	Journal article / Book chapter / Preprint / Dataset / …
`fromPubDate` / `untilPubDate`	date	Publication-date window.
`query`	text	Free-text search.
`filter`	text	Extra Crossref filter (e.g. `has-orcid:true`), combined with the above.
`mailto`	text	Your email — faster pool (recommended).
`rows`	int	1–1000 (default 1000).
`maxItems`	int	0 = all matching.

worksType is a pick-list; query/filter are free-text (Crossref's filter grammar is open-ended).

Output — `WORK`

Envelope + recordType: "WORK" + flat header, then the raw Crossref work:

{
  "_input": "type=journal-article; from=2024-01-01",
  "_source": "S1-crossref",
  "_scrapedAt": "2026-06-03T10:00:00Z",
  "recordType": "WORK",
  "doi": "10.1234/example",
  "title": "...",
  "type": "journal-article",
  "publisher": "...",
  "is_referenced_by_count": 12,
  "author": [ "..." ],
  "reference": [ "..." ]
}

How it works

Your type, date, and keyword filters are applied to the search.
The actor automatically pages through all matching results (up to 1000 per request).
Each work streams into the dataset.

Known limits

Public data — no account needed, runs from any connection. Backs off on HTTP 429. Add mailto for the faster pool.
