Funders are organizations that fund research. OpenAlex indexes about 32,000 funders. Funder data comes from Crossref, and is enhanced with data from Wikidata and ROR. Funders are connected to works through grants.

Filter, sort, and group_by fields

The API supports filtering, sorting, and grouping on funders fields. See Filtering, Sorting, and Grouping for syntax. Fields marked (deprecated) are .search filters — use the search parameter instead.
