Tip
titleUse PO Web Services API

We strongly recommend that you exercise PO Web Services API separately in order to find persons and organizations of interest prior to registering a trial. For instructions, refer to Person and Organization Service. Once you find a person or organization, you can use their IDs within a trial registration packet as shown in API examples below. This helps to minimize duplicates in the CTRP system.
