Description

Retrieves terms from external ontologies that are imported into the Disease Ontology, such as anatomy terms (UBERON), phenotypes (HP), or chemicals (CHEBI). Each term includes its ID, name, PURL, and the count of associated disease annotations. Use this to explore the external vocabularies integrated into DO.

From spec: Returns all terms for this import

Usage Tips

- Valid import names: anatomy, cell_type, chebi, evidence, food_material, inheritance_pattern, ncbitaxon, onset, phenotype, sequence, symptom, transmission_process - Returns UBERON terms for 'anatomy' import - Results are not paginated; large imports may return thousands of terms

name of import

Constraints: {'enum': ['anatomy', 'symptom', 'ncbitaxon', 'chebi', 'cell_type', 'phenotype', 'onset', 'evidence', 'food_material', 'inheritance_pattern', 'sequence', 'transmission_process']}

keyword (string, query, optional)

optional keyword to filter results
