Hey,

you can create claims with wbsetclaim. But you would need to create a valid GUID [1] yourself. The claim-GUID you send with your request needs to be <entityId>$<GUID> (e.g. Q2$5627445f-43cb-ed6d-3adb-760e66bd17ee).

cheers, tobi

You can't set rank, qualifiers, references with wbcreateclaim. My question is if it is possible to create a claim with wbsetclaim?

Using wbcreateclaim might be easier :)
For example:
api.php?action=wbcreateclaim&entity=Q42&property=P9003&snaktype=value&value={"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":1}

Thank you for your answers. I already edited Wikidata data with Java program using the APIs. I just don't know how to create a claim with wbsetclaim. Does anyone? I think it's not possible or I miss the trick.

If your using php take a look at https://github.com/addwiki/wikibase-api
Really simple and easy interaction with the api.

As for wbsetclaim specifically see the following link

Hi Zoltán,

We also plan to support writing API access in Wikidata Toolkit soon [1]. Wikidata Toolkit already has a Java implementation of all Wikidata data objects, so one can represent statements and claims. We also will soon start working on JSON serialization of these objects (which you need to write claims through the API). Work on API access has just started.

So it will be another two weeks at least until this will be fully functional. Meanwhile, you can also look at the API sandbox [2] and especially at "examples" to see how things are done in principle, and maybe create a first prototype implementation that would help us to figure out how to do some other related things (how to log in, how to get and reuse the edit tokens properly). This could help us to speed up the process.

Cheers,

Markus

Hi!
I can't figure out how a claim can be created with the wbsetclaim API
module. It would be convenient to have a single implementation for
creating and updating. Please help me.
Regards,
Zoltán L.
