So, (and sorry I didn't catch this before, I was focused on the narrower
issues), I think your problem there is actually that you're using the wrong
endpoint. When the docs say "Search across repositories," they don't mean
"Search for arbitrary records across all repositories," they mean "Search
across all records of TYPE "repository" - so you're getting back nothing
because there are no resources that are also repositories (
The actual "search for arbitrary things everywhere" URL is just "/search" - I
think if you use that, you ought to get some results.

This is all great! I've adjusted my search query to use parameters you

generating any results. I've tried searching for collection titles and random
words, but nothing comes back in the results value. Would you have any
recommendations?
client.get('search/repositories', params={"q": "Freeman collection",
"page": 1, "type": ['resource']})
I've also adjusted my EAD xml endpoint call and saving the file as you
recommended and it's working like a charm. It's interesting to note that in
previous exports, the barcodes to containers were being attached to the "label"
attribute for the container tag (label="Mixed Materials [5168852364844]"). Yet,
these exports are generating the "physloc" element with the barcode as the
value. This works for us, I just thought it was odd.

Oh, I missed the second part:
So, that endpoint returns the XML directly as the body of the response in
memory. The JSONDecodeError you’re getting is due to trying to decode this
body as JSON, when what you actually have is XML!
If you want to save it to the filesystem, you just need to write it out:
response =
client.get('repositories/5/resource_descriptions/5734.xml?include_unpublished=false&include_daos=true&numbered_cs=true&print_pdf=false&ead3=false')
with open('myfile.xml', 'wb') as f:
file.write(response.content)
Keep in mind also the parameter-passing stuff from my other email, so the
request there can be written as:
client.get('repositories/5/resource_descriptions/5734.xml',
params={'include_unpublished': False, 'include_daos': True, 'numbered_cs':
True, 'print_pdf': False, 'ead3': False})
Hope this helps!

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Search Across Repositories and Get EAD
XML - ArchivesSpace API
Dear ArchivesSpace Members,
Hello, my name is Corey Schmidt and I’m working as the ArchivesSpace
Project Manager at the University of Georgia. I hope you all are doing well and
having a good start to your week.
I have two questions about how to utilize the ArchivesSpace API. First, I
want to use the
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__archivesspace.github.io_archivesspace_api_-23search-2Dacross-2Drepositories&d=DwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=_Mv1dY22K7jvT5MD7xjbvGVzRDOUMhx4WYcnPSIzYnE&m=B2y_0wn1HLyXldJyck05IgPrsrOCn8LyjRI8q5uSbtc&s=_eqqK2s6KdcWsYV9Ke0loG2mitQ-I_nV-F9VeT24-l0&e=
API endpoint searching with the resource identifier and take the results to
get the URI for that resource. How do I structure my call to the API using the
ASnake client (in python)? I have tried the following code with response 400
returned:
client.get('search/repositories?type="resource"&q=ms954&all_ids=true')
client.get('/search/repositories?q=ms954&type="resource"&all_ids=true')
Second, I want to download an EAD xml file directly from the API using this
endpoint:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__archivesspace.github.io_archivesspace_api_-23get-2Dan-2Dead-2Drepresentation-2Dof-2Da-2Dresource&d=DwMFAg&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=_Mv1dY22K7jvT5MD7xjbvGVzRDOUMhx4WYcnPSIzYnE&m=B2y_0wn1HLyXldJyck05IgPrsrOCn8LyjRI8q5uSbtc&s=xwd2j6qv-zYs8pDbLpLM23dcSeDYcPUkZSAuio8FEVQ&e=
XML. How do I specify where the EAD xml file saves to? I’m not even sure if it
is saving anywhere on my computer. However, my requests are successful,
generating a 200 response. I tried turning the response into json (using
ASnake’s .json()) and writing it, but I keep getting a JSONDecodeError. This is
my request:
request_ead =
client.get('repositories/5/resource_descriptions/5734.xml?include_unpublished=false&include_daos=true&numbered_cs=true&print_pdf=false&ead3=false')
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,
Corey
