Deprecation Notice

Deprecation of fields until end of 2024: Since the extraction endpoint now returns a collection of images, videos, and authors, the fields "author", "image", and "video" are deprecated and will be removed by 31st of December 2024. Please do not use them in your code but make use of the more comprehensive collection versions of these fields.
