Welcome to the Open Science Framework's base server for addon integration with our RESTful API (osf.io). This server acts as a gateway between the OSF and external APIs. Authenticated users or machines can access various resources through common file storage and citation management APIs via the OSF. Institutional members can also add their own integrations, tailoring addon usage to their specific communities.
