XML API results do not validate against the schema

Hi @ifarley ,

@ifarley

You’ll need to add the Grant ID Schema 0.1.1 as well. It is available here: https://0-www-crossref-org.libus.csd.mu.edu/schemas/grant_id0.1.1.xsd. This might also prove to be helpful: XSD schema quick reference - Crossref https://0-www-crossref-org.libus.csd.mu.edu/documentation/schema-library/xsd-schema-quick-reference/.

I’ve been consulting the documentation heavily, which is why I’m finding it frustrating that results from the various APIs don’t match with what the documentation and published schemas say that they should be.

We’ve moved our documentation to swagger, but this might also be helpful: github com/CrossRef/rest-api-doc.

Thanks – that was useful, and I was able to put together a skeletal JSONschema version of the REST API output.

Unfortunately, the schema described in that documentation is not correct if the work being retrieved describes a grant, which is what I asked about in this other post:

Thus my question is: how can a parser know, without human intervention, what schema the REST API output from /works/{doi} is using?
