What is the Interoperability Ecosystem?

It enables easy and secure access to information from all Public Administrations.

How It Works

1. SEARCH

After joining the National Digital Data Platform (PDND), explore the available APIs, identify those that carry national interest data, and assess how to integrate them into services or create innovative ones.
