1. Introduction

This document is a part of the IMS Global Person Management Service (PMS) v2.0 specification. The binding details how the Person Management Service Information Model is realised as a Web Service; in the form of a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file. The PMS binding is contained in a set of WSDL, XSD and vocabulary files. The vocabulary files are instances of the IMS Vocabulary Definition Exchange specification [VDEX, 04a], [VDEX, 04b]. The IMS Global Learning Information Services (LIS) Best Practice and Implementation Guide [LIS, 13b] provides non-normative guidance on how to use the Binding and Information Model. For a conceptual overview of the LIS Specification, please see the overall services description [LIS, 13a]. For a discussion of potential applications, see the Best Practice Guide.

1.1 Scope and Context

The IMS Global PMS WSDL Binding v2.0 is used in conjunction with the following documents:

  1. IMS Global Person Management Service v2.0.1 Information Model [PMS, 13] – the behaviour and data model definition of the Person Management Service;
  2. IMS Global Learning Information Services v2.0.1 Best Practice and Implementation Guide [LIS, 13b] – key information on how to adopt and implement the specification.

As such the Person Management Services specification supersedes the original Enterprise Services specifications:

  1. IMS Global Person Management Services v1.0 Information Model Final Specification v1.0 [PMS, 04a];
  2. IMS Global Person Management Services v1.0 WSDL Binding Final Specification v1.0 [PMS, 04b].

This WSDL binding takes the Membership Management Service Information Model and produces an encoding of that description in WSDL. This WSDL binding is generated as recommended by the IMS Global General Web Services documents [GWS, 06a], [GWS, 06b]. The WSDL is created using the IMC GLC Binding Auto-generation Tool-kit (I-BAT) [I-BAT, 06].

1.2 Structure of this Document

The structure of this document is:

2. Platform Specific Model of the Binding

The description platform specific models in the form of the IMS GLC UML-Profile service/data models representation of the IMS Global PMS specification information model. This representation is used by the IMS Global I-BAT tool to auto-generate the corresponding WSDL/XSDs;

3. Application of the Binding Guidelines

Explanation of how the platform specific model is realised as the WSDL/XSD binding. This addresses how the information model is realised as a Web Service;

4. WSDL File Documentation

The description of the Web Services used to realise the service model components of the binding. This part of the binding document was created using the schema documentation tool provided as part of the Oxygen 12.2 product;

5. XSD File Documentation

The description of the elements used within the data model components of the binding. This part of the binding document was created using the schema documentation tool provided as part of the Oxygen 12.2 product;

6. Binding of the Vocabularies

Contains the description of how the set of external vocabulary files realised as VDEX files;

Appendix A - Listing of the WSDL Files

This is the full listing of the PMS WSDL files;

Appendix B - Listing of the XSD Files

This is the full listing of the PMS XSD files;

Appendix C - Vocabulary VDEX Instance File Listings

This is the full listing of the set of external vocabulary VDEX instance files;

Appendix D - Examples SOAP Messages

Examples of the SOAP messages that are exchanged to realise the service.

3. Application of the Binding Guidelines

The WSDL/XSD bindings have been generated using the methodology documented in [GWS 06a] and [GWS, 06b]. Only the synchronous service binding has been created. The binding files are available in two forms:

  • A single combined WSDL/XSD – PersonManagementServiceSyncSingle.wsdl;
  • Separated WSDL and XSD files – PersonManagementServiceSyncWSDL.wsdl and PersonManagementServiceSyncXSD.xsd respectively.

It is recommended that only the combined form is used (many WSDL-based code generation tools do not process the 'import' instructions).

The mapping between the PIM and PSM descriptions is detailed in Table 3.1.

Author: Colin Smythe

Date: 30 June 2011

Version: Final 1.0

Status: Final Release

Description: The Person Management Service. This forms a part of the IMS Global Learning Informaton Services v2.0 Specification.

History: Release 1.0: This is the first formal release of version 2.0 of this service. This version supercedes v1.0. This is an integration of the Person Service from the Learning Information Services and the 'identification' data model from the IMS Global Learner Information Package v1.0 specification.

WSDL Binding: WSDL Binding is based upon the IMS Global General Web Services Base Profile v1.0 The IMS Global GWS Basic Profile is derived from the WS-I Basic Profile v1.1. This profile uses: WSDL 1.1, SOAP 1.1, HTTP 1.1 and XML 1.0. Extension profiles to the IMS Global GWS Base Profile are available but are not supported using this tool version.

Documentation

createPerson

createPersonRequest

createPersonResponse

When the source issues the 'createPerson' request the target is instructed to create the populated Person object and to allocate that structure to the 'sourcedId' passed by the source. If the supplied 'sourcedId' has already been allocated to another object then the request is rejected and the appropriate failure code is returned. The save-point identifier is set to 'zero' for the Person object in both the source and target.

createByProxyPerson

createByProxyPersonRequest

createByProxyPersonResponse

When the source issues the 'createByProxyPerson' request the target is instructed to create the populated Person object and to allocate a unique 'identifier'. The save-point identifier is set to 'zero' for the 'person' object in both the source and target.

deletePerson

deletePersonRequest

deletePersonResponse

When the source issues the 'deletePerson' request the target is instructed to delete the identified Person object and to remove the reference to the Person from any of the related Membership objects. This is a hard cascaded delete from which there is no recovery. If the object identified by the supplied 'sourcedId' cannot be located then the request is rejected and the appropriate failure code is returned.

readPerson

readPersonRequest

readPersonResponse

When the source issues the 'readPerson' request the target is charged with retrieving the identified record from its database and returning this data to the source. The target is responsible for ensuring that the record contains valid data. If the object identified by the supplied 'sourcedId' cannot be located then the request is rejected and the appropriate failure code is returned.

readPersonCore

readPersonCoreRequest

readPersonCoreResponse

When the source issues the 'readCorePerson' request the target is charged with retrieving the mandatory core data structures for the identified record from its database and returning this data to the source. The target is responsible for ensuring that the record contains valid data. If the object identified by the supplied 'sourcedId' cannot be located then the request is rejected and the appropriate failure code is returned. IIf any mandatory field is missing then the status returned is 'incompletedata'.

readAllPersonIds

readAllPersonIdsRequest

readAllPersonIdsResponse

When the source issues the 'readAllPersonIds' the target returns the set of sourcedIds that have been allocated to Person objects.

readPersonIdsFromSavePoint

readPersonIdsFromSavePointRequest

readPersonIdsFromSavePointResponse

When the source issues the 'readGroupIdsFromSavePoint' the target returns the set of SourcedIds that have been altered from the defined reference point, supplied by the source, to the latest reference point identified in the target. If the reference counter in the source is greater than that in the target then an error code is returned along with the target value for the reference point.

readPersons

readPersonsRequest

readPersonsResponse

When the source issues the 'readPersons' request the target is charged with retrieving the identified set of objects from its database. The associated read savePoint reference is updated and returned. If the object identified by the supplied SourcedId cannot be located then the request is rejected and a partial success code is returned for the operation. The target is responsible for ensuring that the records contain valid data. The target should attempt to successfully complete as much of the request as possible.

readPersonsFromSavePoint

readPersonsFromSavePointRequest

readPersonsFromSavePointResponse

When the source issues the readPersonsFromSavePoint' request the target is charged with reading the objects that have been altered from the defined reference point. If the reference counter in the source is greater than that in the target then an empty data file is returned and the target value for the reference point is returned.

updatePerson

updatePersonRequest

updatePersonResponse

When the source issues the 'updatePerson' request the target is charged with writing the supplied information into the identified object. If any part of the write fails e.g. due to partial invalid data then the whole request is rejected and the record is left in its original state. This is an additive write operation of all the data fields supplied in the update request and fields not supplied remain unchanged. If a field is constrained with a multiplicity of one the 'updatePerson' request acts as a 'replacePerson' request for that field. If the object identified by the supplied 'SourcedId' cannot be located then the request is rejected and the appropriate failure code is returned. The reference pointer for the object is incremented in the target system.

replacePerson

replacePersonRequest

replacePersonResponse

When the source issues the 'replacePerson' request the target is charged with writing the supplied information into the identified record. If any part of the write fails e.g. due to partial invalid data then the whole request is rejected and the record is left in its original state. This is a destructive write-over operation of the entire 'person' object. This is equivalent to a 'createPerson' but for an object that already exists. If the object identified by the supplied SourcedId cannot be located then the request is interpreted as a 'createPerson' invocation. The reference pointer for the object is incremented in the target system.

discoverPersonIds

discoverPersonIdsRequest

discoverPersonIdsResponse

When the source issues the 'discoverPersonIds' the target applies the query/filter instructions to the set of Person objects and returns the set of sourcedIds that uphold the query. If no Person objects have the required properties the returned data set is empty and the success status code returned. If the target does not understand or cannot apply the requested query/filter then an error status is returned.

changePersonIdentifier

changePersonIdentifierRequest

changePersonIdentifierResponse

When the source issues the 'changePersonIdentifier' request the target is charged with replacing the original 'sourcedId' with the new supplied 'sourcedId'. All membership entries must be similarly changed. All further references to the object must use the new 'sourcedId' otherwise an 'unknown' object failure status code is returned. If the object identified by the supplied 'SourcedId' cannot be located then the request is rejected and the appropriate failure code is returned.

6. Binding of the Vocabularies

The vocabularies in the PMS are:

  • The type of formatted name vocabulary – the set of values for the type of formatted name. The PSM is shown in Figure 6.1;
  • The type of name vocabulary – the set of values for the type of name. The PSM is shown in Figure 6.2;
  • The type of name part-name vocabulary – the set of values for the allowed name parts. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.3a and 6.3b;
  • The type of address vocabulary – the set of values for the type of address. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.4a and 6.4b;
  • The address part vocabulary – the set of values for the allowed address parts. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.5a, 6.5b and 6.5c;
  • The type of contact information vocabulary – the set of values for the type of contact information. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.6a, 6.6b, 6.6c and 6.6d;
  • The type of demographics vocabulary – the set of values for the type of demographics. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.7a, 6.7b and 6.7c;
  • The demographics information vocabulary – the set of values for the parts of demographics information. The PSM is shown in Figure 6.8;
  • The type of representations vocabulary – the set of values for the parts of representation information. The PSM is shown in Figure 6.9;
  • The type of enterprise system role vocabulary – the set of values for the type of enterprise system roles. The PSM is shown in Figure 6.10;
  • The type of instutition role vocabulary – the set of values for the type of institution roles. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.11a and 6.11b;
  • The type of system role vocabulary – the set of values for the type of system roles. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.12;
  • The enrollment information vocabualry – the set of values for the enrollments. The PSM is shown in Figure 6.13;
  • The type of agent vocabulary– the set of values for the type of agent. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.14;
  • The type of event date vocabulary – the set of values for the type of event date. The PSM is shown in Figures 6.15;
  • Extension data-type vocabulary – the set of data-types that are permitted for extensions in the Group data model. The PSM for the extension data-type vocabulary is shown in Figure 6.16.

These vocabularies are the default set maintained under the IMS Global Vocabulary Registry [SDN11, 06].  It is the responsibility of an implementation to ensure that it is using the correct and latest versions of the vocabulary files.  Changes to the default vocabularies are permitted; this results in the creation of a new vocabulary that should be registered with IMS Global.  As part of a profiling process entirely new vocabularies may be defined to replace the default set.
