Changes from SvD Paper Archive API

There are few changes in the API compared to SvD Paper Archive API:

  • Returned URL for images are only valid for specified time span that is maximum 7 days.
  • Instead of returning page number that spanned multiple products we return only page number within the product. The page number we return in current version always corresponds to the page number printed on the page. Previously if for example one newspaper sold on one day consisted of multiple products - like "News", "Business", "Culture" we returned page number that spanned all those products sold together. Currently it will be exactly as it's printed on the page - so if "Business" is separate product and first page of "Business" product has got number "1" printed as page number - then "1" will be the page number what we will return (this rule applies to both fields pageNumber and maxPageNumber).
  • Unlike in SvD Paper Achieve there may be cases when we return multiple editions of the same page. It means that for given day, product and page number we may return two editions (which can be distinguished by having a different value in "edition" field). This case usually happens when there were different editions printed for different geographic areas. It is still possible to make sure we that only one page is returned (similar to SvD Paper Archive) by passing parameter "edition=1" to the query.
  • We will return topics such as NEWS, BUSINESS, etc., but they are only available for a small portion of the content.
  • A lot of fields changed its names to keep consistent naming with the correct domain terms used in publishing.
