📌 Introduction
To get metadata into the COVID portal, cedar forms need to be filled in correctly so that the metadata will be harvested into the covid portal correctly.
Some general explanation from ZonMw about this approach can be found here: https://www.zonmw.nl/nl/fair-metadata-en-data-onderzoeksprojecten .
Steps to enter your metadata for the Covid Portal
Fill out the Cedar Forms on https://cedar.metadatacenter.org/
How to write the metadata down is described in the M4M page: https://www.gofairfoundation.org/m4m/
See the templates in the section Metadata Forms for ZonMw COVID-19 Community
Important! Make sure to use the most current version of the Covid template, or your information will not be visible on the Covid Portal. - how to know which template to use: ….
Important! The form Catalogue, needs to contain a reference to the page you create for Dataset. And the form Dataset, needs to contain a reference to the page you create for Distribution. Therefore, easiest is to start from Distribution and work your way backwards. How to copy the ID of a Distribution to enter in the Dataset form: Copy the url of the distribution from directly after “edit”to just before the question mark. Similarly you need to copy part of the URL of the Dataset to enter in the Catalogue form.
If so agreed, make sure to enable “Open View” to make your metadata available on Open View:
Go to the three dots on your form → click on option “enable open view”.
Share your forms with ZonMw Covid group in Cedar, and also with Health-RI editors for easier support:

FAQ
Which of these projects can I also see on the national health data catalogue on healthdata.nl?
The metadata that can be put into the COVID portal can consist of
M4M Project Admin
M4M Project Content
M4M Dataset (Catalogue, Form, Distribution)
M4M Dataset corresponds with the entities that are part of the core metadata required by the national health data catalog. Therefore projects without the Dataset entities will not (yet) be displayed on the national health data catalogue.
