| Initiative Title | API Integration Platform |
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | 2023 |
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Continued growth in third-party vendor support requiring access to core service data structures often means high levels of programming in order to provide the required integration. The Information Services staff has implemented Ellucian Ethos, TeamDynamix IPaas, and DreamFactory. With the successful deployment of integration to MedProctor, we are now moving on to further integrations utilizing API. With the impending selection of a new HRIS, we will be seeking to utilize this API Platform to fully integrate that software in the 24/25 academic year. We will also be looking for other new services that can be implemented utilizing the API platform. |
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | If this initiative is not funded, ITS will continue to require longer timeframes to implement new services. |
