APIReference

Get full paper content

Get full paper content in a single call. Ideal for LLM context injection.

Counts toward paper quota on first access.

GET
/papers/{id}/content

Authorization

ApiKeyAuth
x-api-key<token>

API key for authentication. Get yours at https://sciencestack.ai/settings/api

Format: sk_live_... or sk_test_...

In: header

Path Parameters

id*string

Paper ID — either arXiv ID (e.g., 1706.03762) or internal UUID

Query Parameters

format?string

Output format:

  • raw: JSON AST (Team only)
  • markdown: Formatted markdown (default)
  • latex: Reconstructed LaTeX
  • text: Plain text
Default"markdown"
Value in"raw" | "markdown" | "latex"
styles?boolean

Include text styling (bold, italic). Default false for cleaner LLM input.

Defaultfalse
preserveLabels?boolean

Keep original LaTeX labels (e.g., \ref{lem:HS}) instead of resolving to node IDs (e.g., lem:2.1). Useful for LaTeX export where you want compilable output. Default false (labels resolved to actionable node IDs for API navigation).

Defaultfalse

Get paper nodes

Get nodes with optional filtering. Use this for fine-grained access to paper structure. Paper content is stored as a tree of typed nodes: sections, equations, figures, tables, etc. Filter by type to get specific elements: - `?types=equation` - all equations with LaTeX - `?types=table` - all tables with content - `?types=math_env` - all theorems, lemmas, proofs - `?types=algorithm` - all algorithms **Multi-node support:** Fetch multiple specific nodes in one request: - `?nodeIds=eq:1,eq:2,fig:1` - get equations 1, 2 and figure 1 - `?nodeIds=sec:3,sec:4` - get sections 3 and 4 with all content For a quick overview of what's in a paper (including figure image URLs), use `/overview` (free). **Counts toward paper quota** on first access.

Get paper references

Get bibliography entries with optional enrichment data (Semantic Scholar, DOI, arXiv links). **Note:** `format=raw` requires Pro tier.
