App/API/Ontology/uri markup

Back to ontology API home

Description

http://base_url/api/ontology/uri_markup/<text>

Returns a block of text with matched labels hyperlinked, and the original text provided. Matching is based on exact comparisons of all labels in the ontology against the text. Longest matches hit first and prevent smaller, overlapping matches from hitting. The URI links are the OBO standard. This method is preferred vs. the similar "glossary_markup".

Response (JSON)
