Petities.nl can be approached through the Application Programming Interface (API) by third parties.
Eventually all data which is not privacy senstive can be read and to some extent written to the database.
When petitions are presented as the main feature of the application or the petities.nl brand is prominent, there should be no advertising in that same application. Advertisements are not an issue in an application or website which is mainly about something else (the subject of a certain petition for example) with petitions as an added bonus feature.
It is no problem to ask money for or in an application which connects to the API. Donations to petities.nl are always much appreciated and especially when users pay or donate because of a petitioning feature.
Below a design (in Dutch) with certain roles the API could and should serve. Currently not fully implemented. Contact webmaster@petities.nl if you intend to use the API.
Nr. | User | Environment | Example | GET | POST |

3 | application developers | mobile apps, third party sites | Tippiq | x | |

petitioners
These use cases are to be made possible for a petitioner/campaigner:
- show a widget on a third party campaign website where the petition can be signed (BASIC FEATURE)
- show a counter with the number of signatures for the petition so far (BASIC FEATURE)
- inject the name, city and e-mailaddress as a signature by following a customised, personalised link from an e-mail newsletter (BASIC FEATURE)
- embed a selection of petitions to promote/discuss on your personal blog (NICE FEATURE, variation on 1st)
- create a graphic with signatures per hour or per day within a chosen time frame, e.g. 'the past days', 'when we came on tv', 'the days after the launch', 'in the different seasons last year', 'around lunch time on weekdays'(NICE TO HAVE, variation on 2nd)
- (bonus: show an up-to-date timeline with date of start, hand over of and expected answer to the petition) (BONUS, date of start not recorded)

application developers
Dit is een categorie die van alles kan bedenken om eigen software te verrijken met functionaliteit of om mee te liften op de gratis content in de petities.nl database.
Bijvoorbeeld een 'klagen'-app op de mobiele telefoon waarmee je allerlei klantenservices, overheden, beheerders een bericht kan sturen zonder door vervelende formulieren hoeven te gaan. Die vult de app allemaal in. Een opzetje voor een petitie kan daar ook tussen zitten.
Of een lokatie-gebaseerde app die waarschuwt dat er in de buurt waar je wandelt een petitie is om te ondertekenen.
Of een toepassing (app of site) waarbij je kan zien wie van je vrienden wel eens een petitie publiekelijk hebben ondertekend zodat je ze makkelijk uit kan nodigen om de petities die je zelf hebt ondertekend ook te tekenen. Of om te zien of je die petities zelf wilt tekenen of wilt bespreken met ze.
media
De media kunnen nieuws-websites opleuken met informatie over petities. Op grond van geografie of thema. Op de website van de lokale krant staat een overzichtje van petities en op thematische sites staat een overzicht naar petities met een bepaalde tag bijvoorbeeld.
journalists
Een interface voor journalisten kan geauthentiseerd informatie over de petitionaris opvragen: naam, e-mail en telefoonnummer. Niet voordat een petitie in de fase ondertekenbaar is en niet nadat een petitie in de fase afgehandeld is gekomen. Spammers en willekeurige burgers kunnen de petitionaris dan niet bellen, maar mensen die zich wel uitvoerig als professionele journalist hebben geïdentificeerd (ooit) kunnen er wel inkomen. Bijvoorbeeld op basis van een lidnummer van de vereniging van journalisten of nog iets makkelijkers.
European partners
Petities die op petities.nl beginnen moeten ook gedeeld kunnen worden met andere petitiesites in Europa. Europetition zorgt voor de vertaling. Petities op andere sites moeten ook zichtbaar zijn op petities.nl met naam, tekst en het totale aantal ondertekenaars elders. Ondertekeningen hier worden weer doorgegeven aan Europetition (maar niet de ondertekenaars, alleen het aantal).
researchers
Zijn geïnteresseerd in trends en het verzamelen van data. Privacy van ondertekenaars moet wel beschermd blijven.
- GET met (petition) id + updated_at de laatste bewerking van de petitionaris in de petitie, hoe actief een petitionaris is
- GET met (petition) id + status geeft voor een bepaalde petitie de status weer, of een petitie al ondertekenbaar is bijvoorbeeld
- GET met status <concept,live,draft,rejected> geeft de lijst met petities weer voor een bepaalde status
