+
+_Fill out this template with as much information as you can about the adaptor
+you want. You can always come back later and add more detail. Usually we like to
+build a minimal "HTTP client" first, with basic http helpers, and then build up
+more complex and helpful functions later._
+
+## Request
+
+_What is the new adaptor you want to build? And at a high-level, what should
+this adaptor do?_
+
+_Example Text:_
+
+```
+We want to build a basic adaptor to integrate with the REST API for `App X`, which does [add description].
+
+To start, this adaptor should:
+1. handle authentication
+2. include a generic GET helper so we can get any resource
+3. make it easy to search for particular records and return results in JSON
+```
+
+## Credentials
+
+- **Login credentials:** _Provide login credentials to a demo/test/sandbox
+  environment._
+- **Test record(s):** _Add links or descriptions on how to access test data._
+- **Authentication method(s):** _Note if this adaptor should handle specific API
+  protocols (e.g., Oauth, API Key), ensure the right access is configured, and
+  provide links to relevant app/API documentation._
+
+_Example Text:_
+
+```
+See LP `CHT Demo Project` for login information for authentication via Basic Auth.
+You'll find that there is already some dummy data for `contacts` in the systems to query.
+```
+
+## Sample Code
+
+_If you like, you can include an example of what job code using your adaptor
+might look like_
+
+```
+get('/Patients', { query: { limit: 10 }})
+```
+
+## Resources
+
+_Add links to API docs and any other app docs that might be useful_
+
+### Logo Links
+
+_Add links to where to find the app's logo for the adaptor logo_
