With a DataStation, you can offer products and services directly through that station.

How can I see who is using my products or services?

Logged-in users can check “Incoming requests” via the top-right menu.
This shows all requests from other users, to which you can respond.
Approved agreements are listed under “My agreements”, including the details of the other party.

I want to share my services and products only under specific conditions—how do I do that?

When creating a dataset or dataservice, you can select “Add policy”.
You will be redirected to the Clearing environment, where you can configure existing or custom conditions.
For support, contact contact@dexes.nl.

What is a data hub, and how do I join one?

A data hub is an environment where a selected group of DMI ecosystem participants have established shared agreements.
