Description
Elsevier offers a number of APIs https://dev.elsevier.com/api_docs.html
In particular
- the Abstract Citations Count API https://dev.elsevier.com/documentation/AbstractCitationCountAPI.wadl returns a watermarked image per paper indexed by Scopus;
- the Citation Overview API https://dev.elsevier.com/documentation/AbstractCitationAPI.wadl returns a per year document citation counts per paper indexed by Scopus;
Using the first is quite simple (an API key is needed) ... I am using in my website. Among the advantages of this solution there is the fact that people linking on it have access to a Scopus page listing the papers contributing to the citation count.
