Access Instructions

In most cases, to access the available data in DEP, users must have a RITIS account and request an API key for the DEP API. Most data is available to all authorized users, but some data sets are limited to specific user groups, as outlined in the API reference documentation. Follow the detailed access instructions to get access. For assistance with accounts or other support requests, please contact dep-support@ritis.org.
