System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

General guide to the FinBIF (Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility) REST API at api.laji.fi. Use this skill whenever the user mentions FinBIF, laji.fi, Finnish biodiversity data, Finnish species observations, or is building anything that queries biodiversity/nature data from Finland. Covers authentication, pagination, rate limiting, error handling, and endpoint overview. This is the starting point — read this first for any FinBIF-related task.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Centralized API overview: authentication, headers, pagination, error handling, and endpoint navigation.
  • Use cases include taxa lookup, occurrence queries, dataset metadata, and general endpoint discovery for FinBIF-based tools.
  • The skill also clarifies when to employ specialized skills (finbif-occurrence, finbif-taxonomy, finbif-api-endpoints) for deeper tasks.

Quick Start

Provide a sample authenticated request to the FinBIF API including required headers and a simple endpoint such as /taxa
