Smartcard authentication internet-facing
Make it possible to authenticate with a smartcard using NHS Identity on the internet i.e. without needing an HSCN connection.
Performance testing capability
Provide something to help API consumers do performance testing. This might be a hosted service or a set of ready-to-go stubs.
Testing - standardised patient data across APIs
When testing integration across multiple APIs, it would be really helpful to have standardised test patients (NHS numbers) across the APIs.
API platform internet-facing
Make our API platform available on the internet, rather than being only available on the HSCN network.
Self-service testing
Ability to access test environments without needing our help.
My developer account - improved UX
The developer account is based on a product and has UX pain points. The scope of this feature is to refresh it and bring it more into the NHS Digital look & feel to ...
Move the Test Data Self Service Portal (TDSSP) to be internet-facing
Currently to generate PDS Test Data on the Test Data Self Service Portal (TDSSP) it requires a HSCN connection. It would make sense for this service to be available ...
Exemplar API - PDS FHIR API - search & retrieve - integration test
Provide an integration testing environment for the PDS FHIR API - search & retrieve endpoints, including testing authentication with NHS Identity.
FHIR validation service
Provide a service for validating FHIR message payloads. Possibly, this should be part and parcel of API sandboxes (and to some extent it already is).
Test data tool refresh / single sign-on
The test data tool is a little long in the tooth, and also requires a separate account from the developer account, which we have to set up for you (not self service). ...
Developer-facing analytics
Ability for developers to view analytic data for API traffic from their applications.
My developer account - strong authentication
Improve the authentication on the developer account to make it stronger e.g. 2-factor authentication, possibly selectively (e.g. to access production credentials).
