ODS REST API - ODS Code search to get GP email address

API Platform

Is It possible to use the ODS ORD API ODS code search option (endpoint - https://directory.spineservices.nhs.uk/ORD/2-0-0/organisations/ <<ODS_Code>>) to get the GP practice email address ?
API documentation says response data includes contacts - email, website, telephone and fax but when I do a search it does not return any contact details.

We are trying explore an option to use this API to update GP practice email in Trust Integration engine for out of area clinical document delivery.

Thanks,
Mary

Hello Mary
ODS source GP Practice details from the NHS BSA Prescription Service and the data feed does not include GP Practice email addresses I’m afraid.

Thanks

Thank you Laura.
ODS API looked easier to implement but if email address is not available it is not useful for us. We are also looking into the DoS API ODS code search option. Hopefully that will provide the email address.
