Original report on BitBucket by Taina Jääskeläinen.

The text referring to CESSDA Vocabulary Service in the Rest API page

ttps://api.tech.cessda.eu/

could be amended to (amended text in italics):

CESSDA Vocabulary Service Search API

This API is used to query the CESSDA Vocabulary Service [ https://vocabularies.cessda.eu/ ]. You can read the documentation and try it out on the Vocabulary Service Search API page by selecting it from the top menu.

The main use case is:

As a CESSDA Service Provider, I want my study level metadata record creation tool to use relevant Controlled Vocabularies so that the metadata I get is more uniform and consistent with DDI Alliance and CESSDA metadata recommendations.

Step 1: Adapt the relevant fields of the study level metadata record creation form to read the associated vocabulary via the search API.

Step 2: The metadata creator selects values from the list to fill certain fields, rather than typing in free text. Note that a free text field might be still be useful to have in addition for more comprehensive explanation.
