Earthdata Search: How to Check the UMM-S Record for Collections

[Earthdata - wxedward]

These steps can be used to check UMM-S records for Stage for Delivery or Customized download options. This example will show a Customized download option.

1. Using the following URL format, NAVIGATE to the page below in a web browser.
   https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/collections.json?ECHO_collection_id=<ECHO_collection_id>&include_tags=*
   An example collection for Customized Download would be C43677706-LARC.
   https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/collections.json?ECHO_collection_id=C43677706-LARC&include_tags=*
   
   

   This example uses the echo_collection_id parameter to find the appropriate collection. The list of available parameters to search for in the CMR API can be found at https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/site/docs/search/api.html.

2. RETRIEVE a token (if necessary). Some collections and/or data providers require a token to access the CMR API information. In this case, the response returned from CMR would be blank. An example would be concept ID C1236303843-NSIDC_ECS.
   
   
   In this case the URL format should be as follows, to include a token:
   https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/collections.json?ECHO_collection_id=<ECHO_collection_id>&include_tags=*&token=<token>
   A token can be retrieved using the Postman POST Request file below. In the Body of the request, replace the username and password with your Earthdata Login credentials.
3. FIND the ECHO form ID and name in the collection metadata. The id field under service_option_definitions is the ID for the ECHO form used to generate the customized options available on the Earthdata Search project page.
   In this example the ECHO form ID is 15E07651-0061-8ACF-75BF-81B91D9FFFB0. The name of the ECHO form is MIL2ASAE.2 ESI Service.
4. LOGIN to the Metadata Management Tool at https://mmt.earthdata.nasa.gov/.
   

   To view ECHO forms for UAT use https://mmt.uat.earthdata.nasa.gov/. For SIT use https://mmt.sit.earthdata.nasa.gov/.

5. SELECT the appropriate provider in the context drop-down menu.
6. CLICK on Manage CMR.
   
7. Under Service Management, CLICK on View Service Options.
   

   The Service Management → View Service Options will show Customized/ESI ECHO forms. The Orders → View Order Options will show Stage for Delivery ECHO forms.

   
8. Using the ECHO form name found in Step 3, SEARCH then CLICK on the appropriate ECHO form to view the XML document.
   Alternatively, CLICK on Edit or Delete to perform those actions.
   

   Searching for the appropriate ECHO form is most easily done by using the Command+F function on Mac, or Control+F function on Windows. Please note, there may be several pages of forms which are sorted in alphabetical order.

9. The ECHO form XML will load.

   Please note the URL of the ECHO form XML matches the ECHO form ID found in Step 3. In this example the ECHO form ID is 15E07651-0061-8ACF-75BF-81B91D9FFFB0. An alternative to Steps 4 - 8 is to use the ECHO form ID in the following URL format: https://mmt.earthdata.nasa.gov/service_options/<ECHOFormID> Using this example: https://mmt.earthdata.nasa.gov/service_options/15E07651-0061-8ACF-75BF-81B91D9FFFB0
