What you get
Mechanisms in the Duaer data market returns ChEMBL mechanisms of action (type, target, max phase). One successful search uses 1 credit.
Add the node from the Duaer Data category (Mechanisms), or copy the skill on the data market. Related: Compounds and Indications.
Search on the canvas
- Open the node creator, select Duaer Data, then Mechanisms.
- Molecule is required (a new node starts with aspirin). Names or CHEMBL ids work.
- Limit defaults to 10, max 20; results prefer higher max phase. Select Execute step.
A successful search uses 1 credit. Production deliverables land in the data pool.

# Duaer mechanisms
Search ChEMBL mechanisms of action through Duaer with a Duaer key.
## Call
`GET https://api.duaer.com/v1/data/mechanisms?molecule=aspirin&limit=10`
Header: `Authorization: Bearer <Duaer key>`
Use an account key or a model API key.
`molecule` is required.
- `molecule` — molecule name or ChEMBL id (`CHEMBL25`). Names resolve via ChEMBL search. Look up PubChem names with https://skills.duaer.com/compounds.md.
- `limit` — optional. From 1 to 20. Default 10. Results prefer higher max phase.
## Result
Each item has `source`, `title`, `url`, `summary`, `mechanismId`, `moleculeChemblId`, `mechanismOfAction`, `actionType`, `targetChemblId`, `maxPhase`, and `directInteraction`.
Reuse `moleculeChemblId` / names when searching compounds, activities, or indications. Reuse `targetChemblId` when searching activities or targets.
## Credits
One successful search uses 1 credit.
An empty search, a failed search, a compound that matches nothing, or no remaining credits uses 0.
No remaining credits returns 402 and does not search.
A missing key returns 401.
Questions
How are Duaer mechanism results ordered?
