European Single Access Point: Harvesting guidelines for Member States
In the framework of the Data Governance Act 
[https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32022R0868](DGA),
the European Commission shall establish a European Single Access Point
(ESAP), which will be integrated into data.europa.eu. 

As a searchable electronic European register, the ESAP will collect,
partially mirror, and render the data provided by national single
information points (NSIPs). NSIPs will assist potential re-users in
finding information on what protected data (e.g., personal, or
commercially confidential data) can be reused under specific
conditions. They are to be established by the EU Member States by 24
September 2023.

For the NSIPs' information to be successfully collected into the ESAP,
their metadata will need to be structured and provided in a specific
way. To facilitate the implementation of the ESAP and provide clarity
on the metadata requirements, the European Commission prepared a set
of guidelines for the Member States. 

Entitled 'The European Single Access Point on data.europa.eu:
Harvesting guidelines’, the document explains the implementation of
the ESAP and outlines technical and operational requirements for the
NSIPs. Member States can also derive insights from these
guidelines to design their own NSIP to interface with the ESAP, thus
facilitating harmonisation between NSIPs.
