Consider an API for programmatic upload / download / search? #92

It would be great if dash would support a application programming interface that would allow researchers and developers to build tools that could integrate with DASH functionality for uploading, searching, or downloading data. The Zenodo.org API and DataONE API are good examples of this.

Hi Carl. We have a preliminary API available for Dash for some core features, though we'd still like to to expand it some later as time and resources permit. We're happy to get any feedback.

We have some basic examples of using the API at https://github.com/CDLUC3/stash/blob/development/stash_api/basic_submission.md and some API documentation at https://dash.ucop.edu/api/docs/index.html .

I hope this is helpful.
