‍

service::text_search

‍

Parameters

query_string	String	String to search for (* is a wildcard)
k	String	The model that is the type of object to search for (i.e. Gene)

‍

Example

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/query.xml?criteria= service::text_search[query_string$eq'abat'][k$eqGene]

‍

pipe::list

‍

Input

The output from the previous pipeline stage in json format.

‍

Parameters

(left hand side of parameter)	The variable id to be set in the pipeline namespace.
(right hand side of parameter)	A string using simple path syntax.

‍

Response

A comma separated list made up of the values found according to the path is assigned to the variable. More than one variable may be assigned in a single list pipe.

‍

Notes

A pipe may not be used at the beginning or end of a query pipeline. Pipe::list may be used between model and service stages in any combination. The scope of a variable in a pipe::list stage is from the pipe to the end of the pipeline. Prefix a pipe list variable with a dollar sign ($) to reference it. Use the $in operator when referencing a pipeline variable set by pipe::list because the output is a list.

Restful Model Access RMA

Learn about Restful Model Access RMA with comprehensive guides and examples from Allen Institute for Brain Science.

RESTful Model Access (RMA) is an HTTP service designed along RESTful principles to allow access to data in the Allen Institute API. Data model queries support JSON, XML and CSV formats. They can include join, filter, sort, page and eager loading of associations. RMA can also pipe results to perform compound queries and connect to data services. RMA services support JSON and XML formats. The API utility, RMA Query Builder, can be used to compose RMA queries.

‍

RESTful Resources

The path to the RMA service is /api/v2/data. Other models may be substituted for Organism, such as Gene, Chromosome, or Structure. Model names are always capitalized and singular. The number following the model is a resource id. Valid result formats include JSON (.json), XML (.xml) and CSV (.csv)

‍

Prototype

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/[Model]/[Model.id].[json|xml|csv]

‍

Examples

Use a browser or other HTTP client to access:

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Organism/1.xml 
http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Gene/15.xml 
http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Chromosome/12.json 
http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Structure/4005.xml

‍

Use the keyword query rather than an id to search across all resources in a model.

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Organism/query.xml

‍

Use the keyword describe to retrieve information about the available associations for a model. .json format is also available.

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Gene/describe.xml

‍

Use the keyword enumerate to retrieve information about all available models and associations. .json format is also available.

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/enumerate.xml

‍

Use the keyword query without a model or id if the needed information is specified elsewhere in the url. The part after the question mark is explained throughout this document.

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/query.xml?include=model::Gene[id$eq15]

‍

Response

JSON, XML and CSV formats are supported. For example:

‍

<Response success="true" id="0" start_row="0" num_rows="1" total_rows="1"> 
  <organisms> 
    <organism>
     <id>1</id>
     <name>Homo Sapiens</name> 
     <ncbitaxonomyid>9606</ncbitaxonomyid>
    </organism>
  </organisms>
</Response>

‍

Include

Resources in the models are associated with other resources. Display this additional information using the include= parameter:

‍

Example

Retrieve details for the Chromosome with ID=12 and include its associated organism:

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Chromosome/12.xml?include=organism

‍

Response

The associated information will be nested in the response:

‍

<Response success="true" id="0" start_row="0" num_rows="1" total_rows="1">
  <chromosomes>
    <chromosome>
      <id>15</id> 
      <name>21</name>
      <organism-id>1</organism-id> 
      <organism> 
        <id>1</id>
        <name>Homo Sapiens</name>
        <ncbitaxonomyid>9606</ncbitaxonomyid>
      </organism>
    </chromosome>
  </chromosomes>
</Response>

‍

The include= parameter is discussed in more detail in the RMA Path Syntax section.

‍

Criteria

Use the criteria parameter to refine the query.

‍

Example

The following criteria will find chromosome resources from the organism with NCBI taxonomy id 9606 (which happens to be Homo Sapiens).

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Chromosome/query.xml?criteria=organism[ncbitaxonomyid$eq9606]

‍

The criteria= parameter is discussed in more detail in the RMA Path Syntax section.

‍

Only, Except And Tabular

Use the only= or except= parameters to restrict the attributes returned in the response. By default the results include all literal attributes of the resource. These options can be applied to model stages, but not service or pipe stages.

‍

Example

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Organism/1.xml?only=name

‍

Response

‍

<Response success="true" id="0" start_row="0" num_rows="1" total_rows="1">
  <organisms>
    <organism>
      <name>Homo Sapiens</name>
    </organism>
  </organisms>
</Response>

‍

Use tabular= to restrict the attributes and also return them in a tabular format. Use ‘as’ to alias an attribute name or ‘distinct’ to eliminate duplicate rows. This option is recommended for accessing data in applications where sorting and paging are used in a tabular, spreadsheet-like display. This option can be applied to model stages, but not service or pipe stages. The csv format is required to be tabular and it defaults to displaying all attributes of the model. If associated models are referenced in the tabular= option, they should be present in a criteria= option as well. The tabular= option masks include= for serialization purposes.

‍

Example

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Gene/15.xml?criteria=probes&tabular=distinct%20genes.name%20as%20gene_name,probes.name%20as%20probe_name

‍

Response

‍

<Response success="true" id="0" start_row="0" num_rows="15" total_rows="15">
  <hash>
    <gene-name>4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase</gene-name>
    <probe-name>RP_100125_04_D02</probe-name>
  </hash> 
  .....
</Response>

‍

Sorting And Paging

Limit the number of results by using the start_row=, num_rows= and order= URL parameters. Use num_rows=all to retrieve all records (not recommended for large queries). The response body contains information about the progress of paging. Use count=false if you do not want paging information returned in the response.

‍

Prototype

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/[Model]/query.xml?num_rows=[#]&start_row=[#]&order=[...]

‍

Example

Request the first Product by specifying start_row=0:

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Product/query.xml?start_row=0&num_rows=1

‍

Request 10 Products beginning with the 20th row, and order by the Products’ names:

‍

http://api.brain-map.org/api/v2/data/Product/query.xml?num_rows=10&start_row=20&order=products.name

‍

Parameters

num_rows	Integer (optional)	Requested page size. The default is 50.
start_row	Integer (optional)	First row number requested. This is zero-based.
order	String (optional)	The value of order= is an attribute name which may be qualified with a lowercase plural table name (i.e. organisms.name). Use a comma-separated list in the order= parameter to sort on multiple attributes. Sort in reverse order by adding +desc to the order= parameter.

‍

Response

num_rows	Number of rows returned.
start_row	First row number requested. This is zero-based.
total_rows	The total number of rows that met the search criteria.

‍

ActiveRecord Query and Serialization

RMA uses the ActiveRecord Query Interface.

‍

Parameters

criteria	Associations are treated like an AR Query joins() argument and can be thought of as a series of SQL inner joins.
include	Associations are treated like an AR Query includes() argument and are used to drive eager loading of the associated resources. They can be thought of as a series of SQL outer joins.
start_row	Generates an offset() AR Query argument and is similar to an SQL OFFSET clause.
num_rows	Generates a limit() AR Query argument and is similar to an SQL ORDER BY clause.
order	Generates an order() AR Query argument and is similar to an SQL ORDER BY clause.
debug	Includes debugging information in the response such as equivalent ActiveRecord and SQL queries when set to ‘true’.

The filter clauses in both the criteria= parameter and the includes= parameter are treated as an AR Query where() argument. They can be thought of as an SQL where clause combined with the boolean ‘and’ operation.

Models are similar to SQL tables, attributes correspond to literal SQL columns and associations can be thought of as SQL foreign keys.

Quantified Data By Structures

Learn about Quantified Data By Structures with comprehensive guides and examples from Allen Institute for Brain Science.

Data from our large scale gene expression and connectivity products is processed through an informatics data analysis pipeline to obtain spatially mapped quantified expression/projection information.

Reference Atlases

Quantified data is available for the following:

The output of the pipeline are quantified values at a grid voxel level. Quantified values can be computed for each structure delineated in the associated reference atlas by combining or unionizing grid voxels with the same 3-D structural label. While the reference atlas is typically annotated at the lowest level of the ontology tree, statistics at upper level structures can be obtained by combining measurements of the hierarchical children to obtain statistics for the parent structure.

Expression statistics are encapsulated as a StructureUnionize object associated with one Structure and one SectionDataSet.

Projection statistics are encapsulated as a ProjectionStructureUnionize object associated with one Structure, either left, right or both Hemispheres and one SectionDataSet.

StructureUnionize and ProjectionStructureUnionize data can be downloaded via RMA and are used in the web application to display expression summary bar graphs for a set of coarse structures. Its usage is also demonstrated in the “structure networks” example application.

Refer to the atlas API pages for further details.

API Response Formats

Learn about API Response Formats with comprehensive guides and examples from Allen Institute for Brain Science.

The API provides resource data in JSON (.json), XML (.xml) or CSV (.csv) data formats. The API sets the HTTP response code and content type according to the requested format and the success or failure of the query. The default format is JSON when none is indicated in the query. The API sets the HTTP content-disposition header with a filename of query.xml (or .json or .csv). Use the filename= option to specify a different name.

‍

Response Envelope

The API sets five fields at the top level of the response.

‍

success	true or false
start_row	Set according to the request.
num_rows	The number of rows in the current response.
total_rows	The number of available rows for paged queries.
msg	An array containing the results of the query or an error string

‍

JSON

The resources in the msg array contain nested hashes with the associated resources from the include= parameter.

‍

XML

The top level of the XML response document is an XML Response entity with success, id, start_row, num_rows and total_rows attributes. The resources are contained in an XML entity named as the plural of the requested model. The XML entities representing the query results contain nested XML entities with the associated resources from the include= parameter. Underscores in association and field names are replaced by hyphens (-) .

‍

CSV

The CSV response format does not contain paging information (numrows, totalrows). The first row of the CSV response will be the column names. It does not contain a byte-order-mark. Use of the CSV format implies the tabular option. By default all columns of the model at the start of the query are displayed. Generally the CSV format does not work with the include= parameter; use criteria= (rma::criteria) and tabular= instead. The csv format cannot be use with queries that end in a service call.
