Using short ID in place of CSIDs
Foreknowledge of the parent authority ID CSID is no longer necessary. Only the name short ID of the parent authority needs be known, which for MMI is the default person authority. The personauthority service will accept either the CSID or the authority name in the string format urn:cspace:name(person). Likewise, the CSID of the person authority record can be replaced with the short ID of that record.
The URL structure is formatted as such can be formatted with CSIDs

Get cataloging records referencing a specific person authority record
...
...
This is currently broken for MMI. A patch will be applied for the development servers soon.
Getting a list of cataloging records referencing a specific person authority record follows the same API construction listed in the previous section. An additional query path component is used, refObjs, to filter referencing cataloging, procedural or authority records. By default refObjs filters by procedural records, i.e. records that are not collectionobjects nor authorities, but using a ?type=object parameter will filter by object record. Likewise, ?type=authority will filter by authorities.
An example API call would be a as such
