Get More from the Open Data Portal – Register to Explore

Did you know the Open Data Portal has features that make it easy to access, follow, and engage with the data that matters to you?

Key features include:

• User accounts: Creating an account enables you to follow datasets and themes that interest you. You’ll receive dashboard notifications whenever new data is added or updated.
  
  Create your free account: https://opendata.nhsbsa.net/user/register
  
  
  
  You can use the traditional email sign up option or one of our social sign-in options through Google, Github, or Microsoft.
  
  Signing in is optional — all datasets and downloads remain accessible even without an account.

• Discussion areas: Every dataset has a dedicated discussions section where you can ask questions, share ideas, and connect with other Open Data Portal users.
  
  
  
  All discussions are visible to everyone, and you just need to sign in to start or reply to a discussion.

• Report an issue: Quickly let us know about any portal or dataset issues.
  
  
  
  Reports go directly to our support team, and if you provide an email, we’ll keep you updated.
