Unfolding opportunities from the use of APIs in Europe
The role of API in data governance processes
This document summarises the outputs of the third multi-stakeholder workshop organised by the API strategy essentials for Innovative Public Services (API4IPS) project that took place 9th of February 2021. The API4IPS project focuses on identifying technical, legal and organisational conditions that will ensure the deployment of efficient, competitive and robust API-enabled digital ecosystems in government environments. The project, funded by the ISA² programme, is a joint effort among three European Commission's directorates: DG DIGIT, DG CONNECT, and DG JRC, representing policy, implementation, and research actors involved in analysing governments' digital transformation in the EU.
The workshop gathered an interdisciplinary group of experts to explore the role of API in the implementation of data regulatory processes and to evaluate API-related data governance opportunities and challenges. The document contains three sections. The first one sets the context of API in the current data governance landscape. The second summarises the highlights of the panel discussion. In the concluding section, we provide a list of emerging research questions and propose the following steps to advance the debate.
