ACM Digital Library Search API

aid: acm:acm-search-api
name: ACM Digital Library Search API
description: The ACM Digital Library search endpoint allows programmatic querying of computing literature
  across ACM's full publication corpus. Queries are issued against the doSearch action endpoint with parameters
  for full-text search terms, pagination (startPage, pageSize), and scope expansion. The endpoint returns
  HTML responses reflecting search results and supports access to ACM conference proceedings, journals,
  magazines, and the broader ACM Guide to Computing Literature. Institutional or ACM member authentication
  unlocks access to full-text content beyond open-access articles.
