For action: Retirement of Personal Demographic Service - Spine Mini Service Provider API

On 31 January 2024 the Personal Demographics Service (PDS) - Spine Mini Service Provider (SMSP) API will be retired and no longer available for use. 

If you need continued access to PDS, we recommend you migrate your applications to use the PDS FHIR API. You will need to complete the integration and onboarding process. Follow our migration guidance to get started. 

You will also need to book a time slot for technical conformance testing. Please email api.management@nhs.net to arrange a slot.
