Improved

sortBy:date, Last six months vs. full archive

There are two modes of searching Article data in the Diffbot KG when sorting by date:

  1. Default mode: searches articles crawled in the last six months using an Elastic Search cache to minimize response time and return recently crawled data only.
  2. searchArchives mode: searches Article data sorted by date crawled at any time over the last 2+ years.

To enable a search of the archives when sorting by publication date, add &searchArchives=1 to your API call, i.e. https://kg.diffbot.com/kg/v3/dqltoken=YOUR_TOKEN&type=query&size=1&query=type%3AArticle+author%3A%22Jerome+Choo%22+sortBy%3Adate&searchArchive=1
