    Real world data is being used increasingly in medical research. Castor Electronic Data Capture is a secure and user-friendly platform for managing study data. Integrating data from several databases into a single Castor database is complex. We developed CastorEDC API, a free and open source Python package which can be used to interact with the API of Castor, and through which data can be imported from multiple sources into a Castor database. The importer reads, cleans, validates and imports data while accounting for differences in column structure and variable coding between databases.</p
