gtr_search_projects — Search UK research grants awarded by UKRI — the seven research councils (EPSRC, MRC, BBSRC, NERC, ESRC, AHRC, STFC) plus Innovate UK — by free text over titles and abstracts. Returns each grant reference, project title, funding council, grant category, lead department, award status and funding period, for questions like which UK grants fund a given topic, how many awards a council made in an area, or what a UK research group was funded to do. Narrow by funder name and by Active or Closed status.gtr_get_project — Full detail for one UKRI-funded project, looked up by its GtR GUID or by its human grant reference such as EP/T022159/1 or 10045762. Returns the award value in pounds, the lead organisation and its address, the principal investigators, the funding period, the abstract, technical abstract and potential-impact statement, and the research subjects and topics — this is how to answer how much a specific UK grant was worth and who received it.gtr_search_organisations — Find UK universities, research institutes and companies that have received UKRI research funding, by institution name. Returns the GtR organisation id, official name, postcode and region — use the id with gtr_organisation_projects to list everything that institution was funded for.gtr_organisation_projects — List the UKRI grants held by one institution, given its GtR organisation id or its name. Returns that institution's grant references, project titles, funding councils, departments, statuses and funding periods together with a total award count — the way to see a university's or company's UK research funding portfolio. Narrow by funding council and by Active or Closed status.gtr_search_publications — Search journal articles, books and conference papers that UKRI grant holders reported as outcomes of their funded work. Returns title, authors, journal, publication date, DOI, PubMed id, ISSN and the GtR id of the project that produced it — the way to trace UK public research funding through to what it published.Code samples (curl / TypeScript / one-click client install), schemas, and the live playground are on the pack page:
