Common maDMP API

Warning

This is an initial work in progress and the API is subject to change.

Abstract

This API provides a common baseline standard for exchanging Data Management Plans among compliant platforms. The API specification is based on the work of the Common maDMP Standard.

Implementing this API

We provide an OpenAPI document suitable for automatic code generation. You can generate both client and server libraries with it. While any OpenAPI 3.1-compliant generator may work, we have a good track record with this generator.

Please note the following two implementation concerns:

1. This API is built for extensibility. Your server and client implementations must support content negotiation using the Accept header.
2. The PUT API supports conditional uploads to manage conflicts. Your server implementation must support the If-Unmodified-Since header.
