Algorithm Register

In the Algorithm Register of the Dutch government, organizations register their algorithms and share information about algorithms they use in their operations. The register focuses specifically on impactful algorithms (including high-risk AI systems), providing visitors with insight into how these algorithms work. This article guides you through using Deeploy to register or update an algorithm and link Deployments to it.

Configure the integration​

The Algorithm Register integration is controlled on team level. Admins can set up the integration on the Integrations page, which is part of the Admin panel. Click Configure on the Algorithm Register card and Add credentials to set up the integration.

The following information is required:

  • Name Unique name for the credential, used to identify the credential within Deeploy.
  • Organization name The unique identified assigned to your organization upon registration in the Algorithm Register. Required to access relevant API endpoints and publish information in the register.
  • Organization The full name of the organization as displayed in the algorithm information.

Instructions for updating and deleting credentials, as well as changing Workspace permissions are available in the article on configuring integrations.

For any Deployment, you can either register a new algorithm or link it to one already in the register. Within a Deployment, navigate to Algorithm Register under the Compliance menu option.

info

To authenticate with the Algorithm Register API, you need a short-lived authentication token. The steps to obtain this token are outlined in the API manual of the Algorithm Register.

Register a new algorithm​

Select Register algorithm. Provide the required information. Please note that the requested information is available solely in Dutch, and responses should also be submitted in Dutch. After saving, the algorithm information will be available on the Algorithm Register page in Deeploy, and the algorithm is released for publication on the Algorithm Register itself.

Select Link algorithm and provide the algorithm ID (also known as lars code) of the algorithm you want to link. Multiple Deployments can be linked to the same algorithm.

Click the options button and select Unlink. You can always link the Deployment to a different algorithm after unlinking the current one.

View a linked algorithm​

Once a Deployment has been linked to an algorithm in the register, the algorithm information can be viewed on Deeploy; navigate to Algorithm Register under the Compliance menu option. Click the options button and select Preview to view a preview of the algorithm in the Algorithm Register.

Update a linked algorithm​

Click the options button and select Update. Update the necessary fields, and click Save. To make the updated available on the Algorithm Register, click the options button and select Release. This will release the algorithm for publication, after which a regulatory lead can review and publish it in the register.

Retract a linked algorithm​

Click the options button and select Retract. Confirm your choice, and click Retract. The algorithm will still be linked to the Deployment, but will no longer be available on the Algorithm Register.
