@pecan88 Need more info. I'm guessing our current APIs work, but I need more specifics.

@pecan88 ping...

@shirey - I think the use case here is an external party being able to pull donor information via our HuBMAP APIs. My sense is that it's covered by the features you identified for April / May of this year or possibly by existing ones ... So, I think this is the API side of "let me download Donor info" in #305.

@pecan88 and @computationdoc I'm still confused. Peter, you responded on Slack saying this is "Donor Data" vs "Donor Metadata" related. As far as I know we really only have "Donor Data", but we are calling it metadata even though it isn't "meta". We currently have API access to the extracted data/"metadata" for the few simple fields, age, sex, race, bmi, etc...

If we need to provide another level of access I'll need some requirements around this. Will this other data be PHI and only accessible by certain folks (never public?)?-- If so we definitely don't have this built.

Closing as a) it is 3.5 years old b) I still don't have clear specs- but also c) We are updating documentation that should help with what we currently have available.
