Service Operations

The SFA_FINANCIAL_AID web service provides the following SOAP and REST services that enable you to access student Campus Solutions Financial Aid information:

Service	Service Operation	Description
SFA_FINANCIAL_AID	SFA_GET_STUDENT_AWARDS	SOAP Service. Allows the student to view award information for an Institution and Aid Year.
SFA_FINANCIAL_AID_R	SFA_GET_STUDENT_AWARDS_R_POST	REST Service. Allows the student to view award information for an Institution and Aid Year.

The service operations use PeopleTools Integration Broker. Any user interface that is web-service enabled and complies with web service standards can access the service operations. The SFA_FINANCIAL_AID web service adheres to open web service standards that are currently supported in the latest release of PeopleTools. Before you develop your own user interface, it is recommended that you use a SOAP service tester to become familiar with how the web services process the student account data and user information. One way to use a service tester is to pass the input parameters to a service operation, and then view the service operation output.
