<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The Altmetric plugin for EPrints is available from the [https://bazaar.eprints.org/555/ Bazaar] or [https://github.com/eprintsug/altmetric/ GitHub].<br />
<br />
The Altmetric badges can also be added to pages by following the instructions here: [https://badge-docs.altmetric.com/index.html]<br />
<br />
== Changes (November 2025) - API key now mandatory ==<br />
The Altmetric plugin uses the Altmetric API to get data. If you are using this to display Altmetric badges, please check to see if you have an API key defined.<br />
This should be in <code>EPRINTS_ROOT/archives/ARCHIVEID/cfg/cfg.d/z_altmetric.pl</code>, although may have been defined in another config file.<br />
<br />
From: https://github.com/eprintsug/altmetric/blob/main/cfg/cfg.d/z_altmetric.pl#L20-L21<br />
<br />
<source lang=perl><br />
# Optional API key - see http://api.altmetric.com/index.html#keys<br />
# $c->{altmetric}->{api_key} = "";<br />
</source><br />
<br />
An upcoming update to the plugin will start requiring this to be set before rendering a badge on a page.<br />
<br />
The future of this integration may be a deprecation of the 'API' route, and support a configurable embedded badge instead.</div>
