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

Hi Kingsley,
  Ya, at the NCBO hackathon i tried a variety of tools with the NCBO SPARQL
endpoint, and the addition of the api_key=x parameter in the SPARQL URL
wasn't always welcome (e.g. Relfinder would automatically append a '?' to
whatever you put as a URL), but others like SILK either accept the extended
URL or have an explicit parameter field.
  So, with the webid - do you have examples where this can be used
programmatically (e.g. with a perl/java/php script)? You see, there's no
need for the apikey if you use their interface.
