When to use this example

From the Scopus Document Scraper readme:

Why is the abstract empty?

Scopus Preview does not show abstracts, author keywords, the language or the full author list to visitors who are not signed in. The actor only returns what the preview shows and lists the missing fields in notShownOnPreview. Use the DOI link to read the abstract at the publisher.

Known limit

Only the first author is shown by name; authorCount gives the total.
