The ES engineer will create an API account for the approved user during the implementation process and passes their credentials via secure process such as PrivNote. The credentials passed include the account username and password, configured with the appropriate role(s) and college MIS Code, to ensure the user access is restricted to their college or district.

Integrate with the Bi-directional Fraud Data API

Colleges and districts have options for integrating with the Bi-directional Fraud Data API, including:

1. Install and use Postman to interface with theFraud Data API (optional, but recommended)

2. Set up standard templates in your preferred API tool (Python, CURL, Powershell, Ruby, Java, etc.)

Install and Use Postman

See the Using Postman for the Bi-directional Fraud Data API guide for download and installation of Postman.

Or they can simply use Postman and the files templates configured for the Bi-directional Fraud Data API that are provided , to educate themselves on the GraphQL API language and/or visualize the data structure.

Integrate / Update College Adaptor & Fraud Staging Table

In our current flow of bi-directional fraud reporting, the CCCTC enables a college to submit (via the Bi-directional Fraud Data API) a fraud report and have it broadcast to other colleges (those colleges that the student also applied to). For the colleges that have the College Adaptor installed and the fraud-staging-table config enabled, the fraud report is pushed into that college’s sis staging table.

For colleges that don't have the College Adaptor installed (or the fraud-staging-table config disabled), we are unable to share the fraud report with them in this way. Instead It is expected that the college will use the Bi-directional Fraud Data API to retrieve the fraud reports associated with their college (by misCode).

Using an API client tool such as Postman can greatly simplify the fraud reporting and querying processes for users that may not have experience with a GraphQL API. The CCCTC has provided and configured to the Fraud Data API schema, submitting fraud reports for your college will be greatly simplified. See the Fraud Data API Operations section below for query instructions, screenshots, and helpful tips with the three primary Fraud Report API requests.
