Important things to note

Documentation

See also documentation for PAPI Service URI Parameters.

papi.org-id

• The root organisation id for the server that Polaris API is run from

• Typically a server will only support a single api organisation, and this will be the root system organisation (1)

• Used for API authentication

client-config.logon-branch-id

• Used for staff logon

• Can be any valid branch of the organisation represented by services.organisation-id.

• Should not be the same as the services.organisation-id.

  Status
  colour Red title TBC

• Current usages in the PAPI Service API: https://documentation.iii.com/polaris/PAPI/current/PAPIService/PAPIServicePatronRegistrationCreate.htm#papiservicepatronregistrationcreate_2842942390_1220089 , https://documentation.iii.com/polaris/PAPI/current/PAPIService/PAPIServicePatronRegistrationUpdate.htm and https://documentation.iii.com/polaris/PAPI/current/PAPIService/ItemCheckoutPost.htm .

• Current usages in the Application Services API: “Transacting branch ID. This should represent where the request originated from. Typically the same as the logged on branch, but in the case of offline processing it would be the branch that was logged into during offline processing.“

services.organisation-id

• Defines the root id of the logged-on organisation.

• There will be multiple organisations that can be logged in as on a shared server

• This is not typically a branch or pickup location, but the library organisation under which pickup locations are defined

item.ill-location-id

• needs to be set to the location which will be used as the home for any virtual items created. This location MUST

  • be able to supply all the pickup locations in your network

  • be select-able as a pickup location in order for the supplying flow to indicate to staff that DCB loans should be placed in transit.

• is set at a library level, rather than a server level
