This page documents BioPortal Web Service signatures. The list below contains commonly accessed BioPortal Web services and is not intended to be an exhaustive list. If a feature you are interested in is not in the list below, please contact BioPortal Support to request the service or ask for more details on the full list of services.

The prefix for all service URLs in the table below is http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/

  • Note: As of May 2009 all NCBO REST web service calls MUST append a user identification query parameter with the pattern of "email=ENCODEDEMAIL" where ENCODEDEMAIL is your user identification URL encoded email address. For example, someUser@university.edu would look like someUser%40university.edu. Please start adding this URL parameter to all your web service invocations. Later in 2009, we may start challenging REST service calls that do not have this parameter.
  • Note: Signatures for BioPortal services have changed in BioPortal 2.0.4 release on January 13th, 2009. This page has the new service URLs. If you have any questions, please contact BioPortal Support.


Services to access ontologies and ontology versions

List all the latest version of ontologies

Get a specific ontology based on a version id

Download an ontology file

Get all versions of an ontology form a virtual ontology id

Get latest version of an ontology id

List all ontology categories id

Concept services

Get concept id

Get all root concepts for an ontology id

Get concept for latest ontology version id

Search services

Search BioPortal

  • Signature: ./search/{query}[?{optional args}]
  • Example: http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/search/Gene
  • You can use multiple query terms, separated by a space, for example: http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/search/lung disease
  • Optional arguments:
    • ontologyids=<ontologyid>,<ontologyid>… - limits the search to specific ontologies (default: all ontologies)
    • isexactmatch=[1/0] – match the entire concept name (default: 0)
    • includeproperties=[1/0] – include attributes in the search (default: 0)
    • pagesize=<pagesize> - the number of results to display in a single request (default: all)
    • pagenum=<pagenum> - the page number to display (pages are calculated using <total results>/<pagesize>) (default: 1)
    • maxnumhits=<maxnumhits> - the maximum number of top matching results to return (default: 1000)
  • Description:

The search attempts to match both partial and exact queries, giving more weight to exact matches. In single-word searches, the wildcard character (*) is automatically appended to the end of the word. For example, searching for "lun" would return all concepts whose name contains a word that begins with "lun" (i.e. "Lung", "Murine Lunate Bone", "Base of the Lung", etc).


In phrase searches (multiple words), the wildcard character is appended to the last word. For example, searching for "cutaneous mela" would return all concepts whose name contains the word "cutaneous", followed by any word that begins with "mela" (i.e. "Cutaneous Melanoma", "Metastatic Non-Cutaneous Melanoma", "Cutaneous Melanoma Clinical TNM Finding", etc).

Hierarchy Services

Note: The hierarchy services will be available in May, 2009

Get parents|children of a given concept in a specific ontology version

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

		</list>
	</data>
</success>

Get parents|children of a given concept in the latest version of a given ontology

Get paths to roots|leaves from a concept in a specific ontology version

  • Signature: ./concepts/[rootpath|leafpath]/{ontologyVersionId}/{conceptId}[?{optional args}]
  • Example: http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/concepts/rootpath/13578/Melanoma
  • Example: http://rest.bioontology.org/bioportal/concepts/leafpath/13578/Melanoma
  • Optional arguments:
    • offset=<integer> – results offset (used for pagination)
    • limit=<integer> – limits the number of results
  • Description: return a set of path to the roots (resp. leaves) for a given concept in a specific ontology version. Paths are represented as a list of conceptIds, separated by periods (.) The first one in the list is a root (resp. leaf) in the hierarchy; the last one in the list is the direct parent (resp. direct child) of the concept.
  • Note: These services accepts UMLS Abbreviated source name (SAB) for ontlogyVersionId and UMLS Unique identifier for concept (CUI) fro conceptId.
  • Sample Output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<success>
	<accessedResource>
		/bioportal/concepts/rootpath/13578/Melanoma
