Collection Dates API
From a client's question to a live service, handled end to end
It started as a question: could a council's website show residents a full year of collection dates? The existing integration only returned the last and next collection, so new subscribers had to be loaded by hand and often missed their first one. Rather than wait for a change to the core product, I proposed a standalone API and took it the whole way. I ran the scoping call with the client, the council and their web supplier, wrote the specification with example requests and responses, broke the work into an itemised estimate, and quoted both the build and the monthly running cost.
