Possibility of using facets?

Dear Massimo

I love all the resources you/your group provide for bibliometric analyses - what a great resource. I am trying to filter my outputs using other fields in particular the Fields of Research codes in Dimensions but have not succeeded in returning this data from an API query.

The category_for is the Fields of Research codes is available for filtering the data on the online GUI, but I haven't figured out how to incorporate it into the query easily from R using the API. See more about the use of these codes - its related to concepts but seems to be more detailed. If the link doesn't work the title is "Recategorising research: Mapping from FoR 2008 to FoR 2020 in Dimensions"

The category_for field seems to be available as a facet (does that mean a one to many relationship per publication? I think so).

Can you figure out how to add facets to your query functions? I am struggling to get the escapes and quotations right.

Cheers

Chris Buddenhagen
