FAQ

Common questions.

What is SHAER?

SHAER is a public distribution registry built to keep distribution inspectable on a permanent public registry surface.

What is a Distribution Record?

A distribution record is the public object created by SHAER for assets such as research publications, legal notices, documentation releases, product releases, and policy updates.

What is Publisher Identity?

Publisher identity makes distribution attributable. It shows who created and controls a public distribution record.

What is Destination History?

Destination history makes destination changes inspectable by preserving where a distribution record points now and where it pointed before.

What are Validation References?

Validation references are public references attached to a distribution record when validation visibility is exposed through SHAER.

How does SHAER relate to ENARA?

ENARA performs validation. SHAER exposes validation visibility and public distribution records.

Is there an API?

Yes. SHAER provides registry API access to create records, inspect records, manage distribution visibility, update destinations, and query registry data by publisher or record identifier.

Public Registry API

Work with registry data directly.

Use the API to create records, inspect records, manage distribution visibility, and access registry data from your own systems.
