Re: Fwd: [bioportal-announce] BioPortal 3.7 Released

Hi Kingsley,

Quick tip from Trish:

Using the example, add the API Key to this line:
SERVICE <http://sparql.bioontology.org/sparql?apikey=YourAPIKey

NCBO started to require a (free on request) APIKey to use their
services some time ago (I think that the announcement was sent to this
list). It helps them track how their services are being used and, of
course, prevents Denial of Service attacks. Come to think of it, they
might be interested in considering how to use WebID instead.

Hope that helps,
Scott
