Recommendations for requesting data from Via Oberta

In November 2020 we announced the change of registration requests to Via Oberta by type of procedure.  

During 2021, more than 1.000 registration requests for the different consultations offered were resolved favorably. Via Oberta, and we expect that the consumption of interoperable data will continue to grow during 2022. To facilitate the request for new data, below we remind you of what to keep in mind when filling out the request form for Via Oberta. 

For data from the General State Administration that require authorization through the PID, you must choose a procedure code; once chosen, this will be the code to select for all the data you see in the form. Cannot select different codes for the same procedure. 

It is also a requirement for the data requested in the AGE, publication, contribution or translation in the Spanish both of the applicable regulations as of the form where the consultation of the data is informed and the opposition is guaranteed or the consent of the interested party is collectederessat. Therefore, to avoid documentation requirements in the authorization to consult AGE data, we recommend providing the translation of the regulations and the form at the outset. 

With regard to regulations, it is necessary to take into account the current policy of issuers not to accept generic regulations that do not expressly establish the data to be consulted; therefore, the specific rule which regulates the specific procedure where it is required to obtain the data or document to be consulted. 

Concerning the consent, you will find a detailed explanation of the types of consent and which one to choose in each case in the document containing the step by step to fill out the authorization request form by type of procedure in the services of Via Oberta  (page 14).
