Screening Online API request fails with Insufficient identifier... What is a correct "identifier" for the Screening Online API?
When I call the screen method, I get this error:
Unmarshalling Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Insufficient identifier components provided.
I have my group and user identifiers, but what is a sufficient identifier?
Here's my screening code that fails...
<soapenv:Body>
<scr:screen>
<screenRequest>
<assigneeIdentifier>203</assigneeIdentifier>
<customId1>?</customId1>
<customId2>?</customId2>
<groupIdentifier>4</groupIdentifier>
<name>Michael Bloomberg</name>
<nameType>INDIVIDUAL</nameType>
</screenRequest>
</scr:screen>
</soapenv:Body>
Hi @John Williams, the Screening Online API has several identifiers it uses. In your code example the assignee and group identifiers are not formatted properly. I updated my answer for correctness and further clarity.
The most common identifiers and their formats are:
groupIdentifier: cng_so_xxx - where xxx is your group ID
userIdentifier: cnu_so_xxx - where xxx is your user ID
ownerIdentifier: cnu_so_xxx - where xxx is a user ID
assigneeIdentifier: cnu_so_xxx - where xxx is a user ID
nameIdentifier: so_n_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (created by Screening Online)
matchIdentifier: so_m_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (created by Screening Online)
batchIdentifier: so_b_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (created by Screening Online)
Notice the prefixes to the identifiers these are required. Replace your assignee and group Identifiers with the proper prefixes and your code should work properly.
Let me know if you have any more questions about your API requests.
