BE | IES | Discovery for the API #90654

Closed mtcA6 closed 1 month ago

mtcA6 commented 2 months ago

Background

There's an IES API! We should figure out how to connect and the best POC to work with (start with Lisa G Jefferies).

@mtcA6 Who sent you the link to the confluence doc? I'll need to reach out and ask some questions.

mtcA6 commented 2 months ago

@tpharrison sorry I thought i had included that! i thought for sure I drafted a message including it I must not have submitted it.

Emailed Lisa on Aug 15 asking for help connecting to the API.

Travis shared this document on Aug 19th. See this thread for more details.

I am able to view the Claim Evidence API Swagger documentation using the CAG, but I haven't been able to test anything yet. I'm assuming I'll need to authenticate first, so I may need some help with that. Also, I believe that our staging environment hits BIS LINKTEST, and I'd like to verify that the Claim Evidence API is available in this environment for testing.

These documents may be helpful, but I am unable to view them (I get a 404 page not found error):

Travis sent an email to Thomas Moore explaining our situation and asking for assistance in getting connected to the appropriate API.

Waiting to hear back...
