Summary Author

Get cases by summary author (name search or author ID).

GET https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2p1/cases/?summary_author=name_or_id

Name	Type	Description
Authorization*	String	Authorization Token XXXXXXXXXXX where XXXXXXXXXXX is the token string

This parameter accepts either a name string or a numeric author ID.

Name search: Provide one or more space-separated name tokens. Each token is matched case-insensitively against both the first and last name of summary authors. All tokens must match (AND logic), so more tokens narrow the results.

ID search: If the value is a numeric integer, it is interpreted as the author's ID and an exact match is performed.

Example

URL — name search (one token)

https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2p1/cases?summary_author=schlanger

URL -- name search (Multiple tokens)

https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2p1/cases?summary_author=margo+schlanger

URL — ID search

https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2p1/cases?summary_author=21900
