Nobelprize.org offers open data to developers in two ways: An API and as Linked Data. The data is free to use and contains information about who has been awarded the Nobel Prize, when, in what prize category and the motivation, as well as basic information about the Nobel Laureates such as birth data and the affiliation at the time of the award. The data is regularly updated as the information on Nobelprize.org is updated, including at the time of announcements of new Laureates.
The REST based API provides different ways to list and search the data. The result is returned as JSON or CSV. If you are used to these technologies, the API is an easy way to access the information.
1. Read the terms of use before you start using the API.
2. There is no need to register for an API key, but we strongly encourage you to sign up for developer news from Nobelprize.org in order to be informed about changes and updates.
