Query OpenAlex REST API for 250M+ scholarly works, authors, institutions, journals, concepts. Search by keyword, author, DOI, ORCID, or ID; filter by year, OA, citations, field; retrieve citations, references, author disambiguation. Free, no auth. For PubMed use pubmed-database; preprints use biorxiv-database.

I am writing a script to harvest metadata for 5,000 papers from OpenAlex. I want to make sure my API client receives priority processing and avoids unnecessary rate throttling without an API key. What query parameter should be added to every GET request?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| The request includes a mailto parameter containing an email address. | Passed | Passed |
| The code makes unauthenticated requests without passing API tokens in Authorization headers. | Missed | Passed |

OpenAlex is a free, open-access index of 250M+ scholarly works, 90M+ authors, 110,000+ journals, and 10,000+ institutions. It succeeds Microsoft Academic Graph and provides rich metadata: abstracts, open-access URLs, citation counts, referenced works, author disambiguated IDs (ORCID), and concept tags. The REST API requires no authentication for up to 100,000 requests/day; a polite pool (email parameter) gives priority processing.
