The REST interface of the Helsinki Metropolitan Area Service Register provides descriptions of the physical and electronic services of the cities of Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa and Kauniainen. The interface has been developed according to REST templates and can be used to query information either in JSON or XML format.
The following information can be asked through the interface, for example:
— service descriptions for services
— services related to services
— service channels of the e-service
— search terms related to service descriptions
Data can be requested from the interface either one data element at a time or as a listing that returns data from all data elements of the type in question at one time. A more detailed description and examples can be found in the interface connection.
