• RESTful (Representational state transfer API) – Commonly used as standard for building APIs – Helps guarantee interoperability
• Use API to retrieve data from DMPTool2 site – List of users, list of plans, etc.
• Data provided in JSON format
JSON: JavaScript Object Notation Text-‐based open standard for data structures Designed for human-‐readable data interchange
2 API"
• Accessible by any tool that can make HTTP requests and receive HTTP responses
• API documentation will provide examples using curl
curl: Client for URLs way to get documents/files from or send documents to a server
2 API"
• Requests authenticated using “basic auth” to pass the DMPTool2 login credentials to access user’s data
• Public information will be unrestricted – Institutions – DMP Templates & Resources – Public DMPs

Scientific Values
Scientific Practices
1. Infrastructure Development
2. Community Building 3. Metascience
Openness incentives and workflow
1. Infrastructure Development
2. Community Building 3. Metascience
Scientists…
• Don’t start by being open • Focus on efficiency • Are often constrained by collaborators • Want to do accurate science • Are not sure how • Will use tools that make openness practical
Open Science Framework
• Respect workflow • Robust to different workflows • Integrate private and public workflows • Incentivize openness • Support top-‐down and bottom-‐up incentivization
