Developers can retrieve master data through the YOUnite API. The differences between YOUnite Data Store and federated require different access patterns.
Federated vs YOUnite Data Store Access Patterns
- YOUnite Data Store - Master data records requests are synchronous and can be made for a single master data record or a page of master data records.
- federated - A request for a single master data record is made asynchronously. The consumer needs to provide a callback URL to YOUnite where the assembled master data record can be delivered. When YOUnite receives the request for the federated data record, it:
- Looks up what systems/adaptors contain the data record
- Consults the appropriate inbound/outbound ACLs (Governance), requests
- Makes a request for the data at the appropriate systems
- Assembles the data based on Gold/Silver adaptor status (if any have been configured or added to the request)
- Delivers the assembled record to the consumer's callback URL.
