This web service will expose a POST method that Kuali Build applications can call to transmit completed KB documents into OnBase, UH's document imaging system.

...

• exportPdf()
  • KB will post the unique document ID to the service for a callback to KB

Internal Methods

• getPDF()
  • callback to KB using the document ID to export the PDF from KB
  • Use GraphQL API to pull the PDF from KB
    • Testing against any of our environments can be done against /app/api/v0/graphiql. It loads up a playground against our KB data to help figure out how to write the queries.  Currently, all documentation lives in the GraphQL playground (schema and docs tab), but more user-friendly docs (see draft) are forthcoming.
      • Sandbox playground https://hawaii-sbx.kualibuild.com/app/api/v0/graphiql
• generateIndexFile()
  • index file specifications
    • keywords+ | OnBase document type | PDF filename
    • additional notes

      • each index file will have the naming convention kuali-build-index-yyyymmddmmss.txt

      • each filename will have a distinct naming convention kuali-build-doc-yyyymmddmmss.pdf

      • This will allow all the pairings (of index and PDF) to get saved in the same directory

        • On the OnBase side, they'd search for something like kuali-build-index*.txt

      • Our service will create 1 entry per index file even though OnBase supports multiple records per index file.

      • UH# | LASTNAME | FIRSTNAME | MIDDLEINITIAL | SERVICEYEARS | SHIPNAME | DOCUMENTTYPE | FILENAME
• transfer
  • sftp the PDF and the index file to sftp.hawaii.eduthe SFTP Server

SFTP Server

This is a temporary holding spot where the PDFs and index files live until OnBase can stage them on it's DIP server.

...

OnBase will periodically pull files from the sftp server, stage them on a the DIP processing server, and then ingest the PDF into OnBase.
