Client Platform

A Client Platform identifies the system that you are operating. When you contact us, we will assign you a Client Platform ID.

Each Submission's ID is namespaced within its Client Platform, and must be unique within that platform.

Service Providers

If you want to send Submissions, you will need a Client Platform. If you only want to get status updates on submissions from another platform, you do not need one.

Checklist

  • Are you registering Submission IDs within your platform? If so, contact us and we will supply a Client Platform ID.
  • Are you retrieving Submissions sent in by another Platform? If so, you will not need a new one. You do not need to know the Client Platform ID to retrieve Submissions.
