Hi,
I'm using the ops claims endpoint (http://ops.epo.org/3.2/rest-services/pu ... er}/claims) to get all of the claims for various patents. I want to be able to identify each claim individually according to its number e.g.
'claim_1': 'This is the text for claim 1',
'claim_2': 'This is the text for claim 2',
...
'claim_n': 'This is the text for claim n'
I wondered if there is any way I can achieve this, currently it seems there is no rhyme or reason to what I get back in the <claims>, <claim>, and <claim-text> xml. Sometimes each claim is in its own <claim-text> block, sometimes they are in the same one with each is labelled '1.', '2.', '3.' etc. but this appears to not be consistent (for example some are just labelled '1', '2', '3') so doing string searching/splitting on this could cause some dodgy results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi
We get data from different jurisdictions and in different formats and additionally we have changed data formats in same data collection over time which means we have no influence on how raw data that OPS is accessing is displayed.
