+ <dt> 5. Write API </dt>
+ <dd>
+ <p>
+ The write API is designed to be used by authorities to create their own requests in the system. The API is currently used by mySociety's <a href="https://github.com/mysociety/foi-register">FOI Register software</a> to support using Alaveteli as a disclosure log for all FOI activity at a particular public body. More technical information about the write API is available on the <a href="https://github.com/mysociety/alaveteli/wiki/API#write-api">Alaveteli wiki</a>.

<p>Please <a href="<%= help_contact_path %>">contact us</a> if you need an API feature that isn't there yet. It's
very much a work in progress, and we do add things when people ask us to.</p>
