The platform allows you to provide data that is generated in different ways. If your data is regularly updated, subscription offerings give you the possibility to regularly add new datasets to your offerings.
Your acquirers then subscribe to retrieve all the files you add for a period that you define in the "License and pricing" step of your offering.
You can also offer your acquirers the history of the files you have previously added to the offering.
At the "Datasets" stage of the offering submission, you can first choose whether or not a historical file is included with each new subscription, and then whether the historical file is available for purchase. You then have three options:
- offer the complete historical files of the offer;
- propose a partial number of historical files, between 1 and 10 of the last files;
- not to offer any historical files.
If you decide to offer historical files, you can define the unit price of the files making up the history in the "License and price" step.
Use case: You offer data on the platform that is regularly updated. Once the update is done, the historical files keep their value, and you wish to make them available to potential acquirers.
To facilitate automatic retrieval of files from your subscription data offering,set up a cloud connector.
