Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Services

In a .Net environment (Visual Studio 2005, - Visual Studio 2015) you can access the SAS WCF services by adding a service reference to your project. The service reference should be to the following endpoint:

...

When you create the service reference Visual Studio will create a proxy class to the SAS service that makes accessing the server very easy hiding the complexity of web service Soap messages. This proxy class will contain all the methods that are supported by the SAS server. Each method in the proxy class maps directly to the same methods in the Rest/Json interface.

REST Interface

The REST interface provides a simple and easy RESTful interface to the MFAS services. This interface is recommended for integrating the MFAS services into the following applications:

...

• 'type' – The type of request to be  performed  by the server.  The following types are supported.
  
• 'username' – The username (or token for the user) that this action is to be performed on.
• 'spAccountLoginName'  – Your SurePassId server account name
• 'spAccountLoginKey' – Your SurePassId server account  key

You can get your SurePass account credentials (server account name and key) from the the portal.  After logging in go to Settings and you will see the following page where the values are displayed.   

The system supports the following request types:

A sample REST request body is a json request and looks like this:

{ 
  "type": "send_oath_otp",
  "username": "Manny",
  "spAccountLoginName": "accountname", 
  "spAccountLoginKey": "accountkey",
  "deliveryMethod": "sms"
}

• type - Echo of the type that was made on the request
• errorCode – The numeric error code for the request.  An errorCode of 0 signifies success.
• errorMessage – The displayable  error message for the request. 

{
  "type": "send_oath_otp",
  "errorCode": 0,
  "errorMessage": "OK"
}
