2024-04-30 ESSENCE API from CSTE.org for public health surveillance data

Introduction

This is a short tutorial showing you how to make use of the ESSENCE APIs using R. Note that you can learn more about the R package's creators, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CTSE), by going to the CTSE website here.

CSTE works to advance public health policy and epidemiologic capacity. We also provide information, education, and developmental support of practicing epidemiologists in a wide range of areas as well as expertise for program and surveillance efforts.

To access the ESSENCE API's documentation you'll need to create a NSSP user profile and log in with that on this page: https://essence.syndromicsurveillance.org/nssp_essence/usersguide/api/documentation.jsp
