Steps

  1. register for a free API key at data.tepapa.govt.nz/register.html
  2. run a simple full-text search with GET https://data.tepapa.govt.nz/collection/search?q={term} (works without a key for basic GET search)
  3. for advanced search with sorting/facets, POST to the same /collection/search endpoint with an x-api-key header and a JSON request body
  4. use the ObjectResource endpoints (/object, /object/{id}, /object/{id}/related) to retrieve a specific object's full record and its relationships to agents, places, and media
  5. resolve associated MediaResource entries via /media/{id} to get image URLs and per-image licensing
