APIs for Online Digital Services

Online Section 68 Service API

The department has developed inbound and outbound APIs to facilitate the flow of data between the Online Section 68 Service and a council's IT systems.

The outbound API enables a council to receive the Section 68 applications submitted by the applicant into the Online Section 68 Service directly into their IT system in real-time. This eliminates the need for double entry of application details into the council IT system.

Councils will issue a Section 68 certificate and publish them via the Online Section 68 Service APIs. 

Please scroll down to access each API for the Online Section 68 Service.
