NIH offers web services for querying the status of grant applications, verifying person information details, updating person information details and requesting validation response messages (returns errors and/or warnings identified in NIH processing of applications submitted through Grants.gov).
The eRA eXchange is the system for the transfer of grant applications and other grant-related data. The eXchange enables authorized grantee institution or service-provider systems to transmit grant applications as Extensible Markup Language (XML) data streams through Grants.gov to NIH. Likewise, the eXchange allows NIH to send XML-based data streams to these service providers and institutions. The eXchange uses Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) with attachments (SwA) over Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer (HTTPS).
