Sources

Organizations that publish content on ReliefWeb (reliefweb.int/organizations), exposed in the API as sources (id, name, shortname, longname, type, country, homepage, fts_id).

Query /v2/sources to resolve organization id or shortname values for filtering or publishing. There are more than 1,000 sources, so use limit and offset (Sort and paginate) if fetching the full set.
