List Exchange Profile

List Exchange Profile

This document describes the integration profile for exchanging lists and tags between systems.

Sections

Scenario Overview

The List Exchange Integration Profile assumes a common pattern where an OSDI compliant application pulls a list of people from another OSDI compliant application. The first OSDI application then performs some action on those people (say, sending them a text message or an email) and send data back to the second OSDI application in the form of tags.

The steps in this scenario, are loosely:

Setup Phase

The setup phase occurs when a user wants to import a list from the second application to the first.

  1. API Exchange: The first application queries the lists collection in the second application to find available lists to import.
  2. Choose list: A user of the first application chooses a list to import.
  3. API Exchange: The first application imports people on the list from the second application by paging through the items collection of the list and following links to the associated person.

Operational Phase

The operational phase occurs when actions take place on the first application and tags are sent back to the second as a result of those actions.

  1. Actions happen: Actions happen in the first system on the imported people, such as sending them a text message or an email.
  2. API Exchange: The first system sends back tag information to the second system, storing results of the action on the people in the first system in the second system as taggings.

}

This items import process would then continue, using the paging links provided. So the first application would then visit https://osdi-application-two.org/api/v1/lists/c945d6fe-929e-11e3-a2e9-12313d316c29/items?page=2 to download the second page of items, and so on.

Then, the first application would visit the osdi:person links for each item downloaded to download person data, like this:
