The Lingk Adapter can be configured for Colleague by Ellucian support by working with Lingk support (support@lingk.io).
The Lingk Adapter template for Colleague enables institutions to define API endpoints with Subroutines and Saved list. Once the API is defined, you can use the API in recipes to orchestrate data integration and aggregration.
The architecture of the Lingk Adapter for Colleague represents a unified way to access data from Unidata or Microsoft SQL Server-based implementations of Colleague.
The Lingk Adapter uses the Unidata Java SDK to execute subroutines in Colleague programmatically.
Lingk provides a set of Unidata subroutines to help you get started and can help write additional ones as part of your implementation.
Ellucian Ethos solves the problem of unified data access across Unidata or Microsoft SQL Server-based implementations of Colleague. If you have Ellucian Ethos, you don't need an adapter installed or subroutines created. As a leader in Ellucian Ethos integration, Lingk's recipes enable you to more easily work with Ethos APIs than other tools.
