The ONS is currently conducting a short piece of work on the API landscape, with a focus on current best practice (especially from government, and for statistics-based APIs) and meeting user needs.
This short survey is designed to help inform that work – we would be very grateful for any answers (thank you in advance!).
Feel free to answer as many or as few questions as you would like. The survey starts with four general questions on using APIs. Question 5 will ask you whether you run an API – if you do, you will get five additional questions about the API services that you run. Everyone will then have a final question about anything else you would like to share.
If you would like to talk in more depth or be kept informed about this work and future initiatives (e.g. events) arising from it, please email userinsight@ons.gov.uk.
Your answers will be confidential – you will not be asked for your name or email address as part of this survey. This form will close for answers on Friday 21 March 2025.
