Abstract
The Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) has information systems which capture different kinds of data related to the institution itself, as well as its academics and students. Much of this data produces information that is available to users through reports found in the systems. However, there are demands that often come from these users, who wish to obtain data not available in the reports, which requires the need for manual extraction and, thereafter, generates costs to the institution. Furthermore, there are several studies, research projects and applications developed by academics, students and companies that require the use of this information, either to offer more transparency or to develop new ideas and promoting innovation. In this aspect, this paper aims to present an experience of development of a solution for providing corporate data using a service API.
