I have just started to migrate from freebase to wikidata. Basically my usecase involves free searching(suggest-as-you-type) for which i am using wbsearchentities. This returns me a list of results with id like "Q...". \ Now give this Qid, i need to be able to get its images and content.
For .e.g, for the text "Matrix", i make the following call: https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbsearchentities&search=matrix&language=en&format=json >From here, then I pick up one of the Qids, say,Q83495 for which I need to get images. The problem is the imageapi doesent seem to like the Qid form. Do i first need to convert to pageid?? I thought this should have worked: https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages&format=jsonfm&piprop=thumbnail&titles= <https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages&format=jsonfm&piprop=thumbnail&titles=The%20Matrix> Q83495 Any suggestions? Thanks, Suraj.
