Obtaining Digital Student Document Types

When Integrating with PASI for functionality related to Digital Student Documents, integrated solutions will need to Obtain Digital Student Document Types.

Services

Architectural Considerations

The following questions should be considered when Obtaining Digital Student Document Types.

What approach will the solution use to obtain Digital Student Document Types from PASI?

The PASI Get Document Types service allows a software application to obtain all PASI current Document Types definitions. Synchronization of PASI Document Types is NOT accomplished via IsDataAvailable. Only the Get Document Types service is required to synchronize PASI Document Types.

The Get Document Types service allows a software application to specify a Last Known Source Version parameter. When this parameter is used, the Get Document Types service will only return new or updated Document Types that have a higher version number.

After PASI Document Types data is initially synchronized (Last Known Source Version set to zero), a software application must call the Get Document Types service once a day setting the Last Known Source Version accordingly to obtain Document Types changes. If for whatever reason a complete refresh of PASI Document Types data is required, the Last Known Source Version parameter must be set to zero.

PASI Document Type data must be fully synchronized so a software application has a full list of value Document Type code values

PASI Document Type data must be used for software application UI Document Type selection and when such data changes it will be automatically reflected in the software application UI Document Type selection.

A minimum a daily refresh of PASI Document Types into the software application local copy of PASI data must be done using the Get Document Types service.
