MoHFW releases guidelines for integration of Co-WIN application
with third-party applications developed by ecosystem partners
Co-WIN platform for the management of registration, appointment scheduling, managing vaccination, and certification has been rolled out by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) and it is being used by all participating facilities in India’s National COVID-19 Vaccination Programme. Since the launch, Co-WIN has published APIs for various functionalities. The intent is to enable various stakeholders such as States/UT Governments, Private Service Providers, Software Developers, and any other agencies who wish to provide vaccination-related services to develop and rollout software solutions around and compatible with Co-WIN. This document describes the guidelines on information exchange between Co- WIN and the various ASPs’ software and the terms and conditions thereof. The Empowered Group on COVID Vaccinations shall continue to guide these efforts and these guidelines may be suitably amended from time to time as more features are introduced in Co-WIN and the APIs are updated/amended.
