The CV for an application is stored using a YAML file on dropbox. The yaml files are easily readable and modifyable and thus prevent the need for interfaces. Hosting the file on dropbox makes it accessible to the server and solves authentication.

Each CV can be accessed using an access code. The access code corresponds to the file hosted on dropbox. To prevent enumerating/guessing access codes, a random string should be appended to the CVs file name. E.g.: the access code norocketlab-nfjK5 will read the file norocketlab-nfjK5.yaml in the dropbox application folder. For this purpose a dropbox API key has to be generated beforehand.
