Sveriges Radio's API grew organically from the needs of external developers to access RSS feeds of podcasts. It was initially created to support an iPhone app but later an Android app. An official launch was held in 2010 and word spread within the organization. Work began in 2012 to create a more useful and standardized API while loosening the connection to internal apps. The current API version 2 is used by multiple external developers and Sveriges Radio apps are being migrated to it. While there are no immediate plans for version 3, the future includes evaluating real needs and continued education within the organization on the benefits of an open API.
