• Full Text: This indicator is about the resolution of the identifier that identifies the digital object. The identifier assigned to the data should be associated with a formally def ined retrieval/resolution mechanism that enables access to the digital object or provides access instructions f or access in the case of human-mediated access. The FAIR principle and this indicator do not say anything about the mutability or immutability of the digital object that is identif ied by the data identifier -- this is an aspect that should be governed by a persistence policy of the data provider.
