# Request a new DataHub API

This guide is for initiating the request to build a new DataHub API. If you'd prefer to gain a greater understanding of how DataHub works and how everything fits together before you jump in, we recommend starting with the DataHub Developer Documentation

# Create an API for your system

I want to expose my SQL query as a web service

  • Review the Query Requirements
  • Open an IT Service Request ticket (opens new window) with "DataHub" in the subject and include:
    • Which system currently holds the requested data
    • A description of the requested data
    • The names of the data stewards for the requested data
  • Route the ticket to Jason Miller (NUIT Administrative Systems).
  • Your request will be evaluated. If determined appropriate for DataHub:
    • A workflow will be initiated to obtain and document the necessary approvals.
    • Once approved via workflow, complete the Producer Checklist.

# Another group owns the system

DataHub could help me consume another system's data

  • Identify/define the specific requirements for the service
  • Identify the system that holds the data
  • Open an IT Service Request ticket (opens new window)
  • Route the ticket to Jason Miller (NUIT Administrative Systems).
  • Your request will be evaluated. If determined appropriate for DataHub, we will engage the owners of the target system for next steps; they would have to provide a resource to produce the service (write the SQL query, create documentation, etc.) and would own the resulting API.
