The administrative deployment of the Data Exchange Layer contains the following phases:
1. Familiarise and plan
- Learn about the opportunities and obligations
- Map the usage need for the Data Exchange Layer and consider your organisation's role in the Data Exchange Layer
- Agree on contact persons
- Allocate resources and create a schedule
- Prepare the necessary permits and contracts for your service

2. Select a security server solution
- Consider the factors affecting the security server solution from the perspective of your own organisation
- The actor responsible for the technical deployment installs and configures the host server

3. Join the test environment
- Submit a user permit application for the test environment
- Describe your services in the API Catalogue's test environment if you offer services in the Data Exchange Layer.
Read more about the Join the test environment -phase.
4. Test in the test environment
In this phase, the technical responsible performs testing for the functionality of the service in the test environment and corrects any errors discovered during the testing phase

5. Proceed to the production environment
- Submit a user permit application for the production environment
- Describe your organisation and possible services in the API Catalogue and ensure that you have the necessary licences.

Please note that the flow of the deployment process depends on the organisation's role in the Data Exchange Layer and the security server solution that the organisation has chosen. The deployment process is shorter
- if the organisation only uses services or
- if the organisation uses a shared security server.
