In the case of France, the first interviewee was reached following the reading of a blogpost on the governance of open data during the Covid-19 crisis. The first interviewee allowed the identification of a second expert who could complement his knowledge on the governance of the open data in France. In the case of Ireland, the expert was identified through the reading of an academic article that explained in great details the unfolding of the events that led to the Covid-19 open data strategy in Ireland. All the interviewees were approached through email exchange. Interviews took place in August 2022 online through the Microsoft Teams and Webinaire de l’État platforms, each lasting approximately forty-five minutes.
