service description

In addition to the Metadata Store, DataCite has set up an environment for testing all of our services, including the DOI registration. The test environment is a closed system: DOI names registered here are not resolvable with any resolvers other than that of the test system.

This service is intended to test new integrations, schemas, etc. If are planning to make use of it, please contact support@datacite.org to create an account.
