The Lumen Database collects and analyzes legal complaints and requests for removal of online materials, helping Internet users to know their rights and understand the law. These data enable us to study the prevalence of legal threats and let Internet users see the source of content removals.
The main Lumen Database instance has an API that allows individuals and organizations that receive large numbers of notices to submit them without using the web interface. The API also provides an easy way for researchers to search the database. Members of the public can test the database, but will likely need to request an API key from the Lumen team in order to receive a token that provides full access. To learn about the capabilities of the API you can consult the Lumen API Documentation.
If you encounter issues with the Lumen API, please take a look at the Troubleshooting page. If you're facing an issue that isn't covered in our documentation, please feel free to contact us at [email protected]
