Implementations of the OSDI API

Here are current and in-progress implementations of the OSDI API:

NGP VAN

This service allows developers to interact with people, activist codes, and survey questions in VAN, via the OSDI people, tags, and question resources, respectively. It also provides a Person Signup Helper which creates new records in VAN's MyCampaign database, and a Record Canvass Helper which records canvassing data into VAN's VoterFile or MyCampaign databases.

Code for the service is available under the Apache license at https://github.com/NGPVAN/osdi-service

Documentation at http://developers.everyaction.com/osdi

Action Network

Action Network offers a full OSDI version 1.1.1 implementation as its primary API, allowing read and write operations to all types of resources including people, various actions (petitions, forms, events, etc...), tags, helpers, oDdata queries, unauthenticated POST, triggers, and other essential OSDI functions. The Action Network API is suitable for data sync between systems, building additional functionality, and helping express actions in CMS systems or other methods of public display.

Documentation is available here: https://actionnetwork.org/docs

Accurate Append

Accurate Append is a data verification and enhancement solution and has implemented the Person Signup Helper for use with OSDI-compliant CRMs and other database solutions. The API implementation also supports consumer phone append, email append and email validation.
