Subscribe to and Manage Data Sources

Data Source API reference guide

This page describes the dataSource endpoint, through which users can subscribe to data sources, make unmasking requests, and manage data source tasks. To create data sources, see the specific handler endpoints.

Additional fields may be included in some responses you receive; however, these attributes are for internal purposes and are therefore undocumented.

Data source workflow

1. Search data sources and data source details.

2. Access data sources and make data source requests.

3. Manage data source requests.

4. Update data sources.

5. Delete a data source.
