Identify My Data - software interface
Identify My Data software interface
The software interface to Identify My Data is a set of secure web services that let you allocate new identifiers, and maintain existing ones, through software. This lets you integrate these processes directly into data management workflows, eliminating manual steps. As an example, the TARDIS crystallography data registry uses Identify My Data to automatically assign identifiers to registered datasets. ANDS can provide technical assistance with using this service.
Security
The security of the Identify My Data software interface is assured by three means:
- The IP address of your system must be registered with ANDS. Connections from unrecognised addresses are rejected.
- Connections are made by HTTPS.
- Connections must contain a passphrase which will be provided to you.
