bor_by_key

The service retrieves the internal ID (From Z308) for a given Borrower_id if the provided ID and verification code match.

If they do not an error message is returned.

X-Service

Version 18 and later

1. LIBRARY – X (5).
2. BOR_ID – X (20).
3. VERIFICATION – X (20).

NOTE: The X-Service calls “check_bor_id” with type of check: GUI. That means the verification is NOT a mandatory field, and the user does not have to fill it in.

Library: The user does not have to fill in this parameter.

Bor_Id/Identification/Id: Borrower_Id (Patron) on which the user would like to get Internal_Id.

Verification: Password of the Borrower_id (Verification in Z308). The user does not have to fill in this parameter.

The output XML will include the Internal_Id for the Borrower_id given by the user (From Z308).

If the user would like to get data on borrower_id: 12, with verification=12:

* http://server.name:8995/X?op=bor-by-key&bor_id=00000012&verification=00000012
* http://server.name:8995/X?op=bor-by-key&bor_id=00000012

If this is successful, the output XML contains the Internal_Id in the two examples above:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
          <bor-by-key>
      <internal-id>00000012</internal-id>
       <session-  id>MQCE3DG3SECET7SGSG1HYJJUFHL6M6H3MQJ1CUP2P75F6 N6FQ1</session-id>
        </bor-by-key>

1. If the user tried to activate Sort Set X-Service without giving Borrower_id as an input:

< error>Bor_Id must be filled</error>

2. If an error occurred while trying to check verification:

< error>Error in Verification</error>

3. If the global record (Z303) could not be found for a patron:

< error>Error retrieving Global Patron Record</error>
