Download the latest data when you need it, keep spreadsheets connected to Oscar, or integrate licensed public sector data directly into your own systems.
Oscar supports everything from standard Customer Area downloads to live spreadsheet connections, APIs, webservices and bespoke delivery routes. Start with the way you want to use the data and we can help you choose the right approach.
This page is about how existing Oscar data reaches the tools and systems you use. If your requirement goes beyond accessing an existing database — for example you need a bespoke dataset, additional research, a callable data/AI capability or interpretation — the wider Oscar services can take over from there.
Most delivery requirements fall into one of these four routes.
Use the Oscar Customer Area to access your current subscriptions, make selections and download full or changed data files.
Open Customer Area →Bring live Oscar data into Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets so your team can keep working in familiar tools while refreshing from the current source.
View Spreadsheet Guide →Integrate licensed Oscar data with your CRM, database, application, webform, BI environment or other internal software using APIs or webservices.
Discuss Integration →When standard delivery is not enough, Oscar can configure bespoke datasets, feeds, enrichment and delivery around the information your team actually needs.
Explore Data Services →For many customers, the simplest route is still the right one: log in, choose the subscription you need and download the latest data.
Download the complete file for an active Oscar subscription whenever you need a fresh copy.
Where enabled, use changes downloads to update your existing data without replacing the entire file.
Active subscriptions can expose a customer-specific endpoint so licensed Oscar data can be consumed programmatically.
Not every integration needs development work. Oscar data can be brought into spreadsheets so teams can analyse, filter and work with current data in tools they already know.
Use the spreadsheet delivery guide to connect an Oscar data source and reduce repeated manual download/import steps.
Keep collaborative spreadsheet workflows while using Oscar as the underlying public sector data source.
Useful for account planning, list management, reporting and operational workflows that already live in spreadsheets.
Use the web guides below for practical instructions on customer downloads, API access and spreadsheet connections.
When data needs to become part of another system, Oscar can support live or scheduled access through APIs, webservices and bespoke integration routes.
If the requirement is not simply “get this Oscar data into that system”, another Oscar service may be the more useful starting point.
Configure the records, fields, enrichment, refresh logic and delivery route around your specific market or system requirement.
Explore Data Services →Explore implemented public sector data and AI capabilities, or discuss a new callable function built around your requirement.
Explore Capabilities →Use human-led and AI-assisted research when the required evidence is fragmented, changing or not already available as structured data.
Explore Research Services →Combine data, research and analysis around a strategic market, buyer, competitor or growth question.
Explore Reports →Use Oscar's intelligence layer to investigate contracts and commercial public sector activity directly.
Explore Contract Intelligence →Explore Oscar's organisation and postholder databases by sector, role, geography and other targeting criteria.
Explore Databases →Whether you need a download, spreadsheet connection, API, system integration or something more bespoke, we can help map the right delivery route.
