Brooks has started a spreadsheet to line out each API endpoint in INN-Reach and what needs to happen in FOLIO for each oneBrookshttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YHi1e3F43WBvP2LzCl2HnEAH7-t0TEs6RIvWKvFkrZQ/edit?usp=sharing






Notes

Brooks shared a link: /wiki/spaces/~mikhail.fokanov/pages/4358153 to a document describing INN-Reach architecture.

Pub/Sub is the mechanism that FOLIO is planning to use for the sort of messaging functionality that INN-Reach needs, but it is low priority for FOLIO.

We have to decide if we want to wait for Pub/Sub and push for it to be completed faster or implement Kafka faster and maybe have to change again later when Pub/Sub is ready.

Pub/Sub may be a year before it is ready to be used.

Consensus is to go with Kafka quickly even if it duplicates effort with Pub/Sub.

Discuss Visiting Patron functionality and Pick Up Anywhere functionality.

Brooks will let us know of the slack channel if there is anything other's can do to help the project.
