We (Tarrant County College) are currently configuring and should be implementing ETHOS very soon.

Thanks so much for the quick response, Darrell! I have a couple questions that I'd like to email you about. I'll reach out shortly.

I realize this thread is a few years old, but have either of your institutions used the Ethos to Laserfiche integration?

Our interface team tried making use of Ethos. It took them weeks to make a GET that would reliably return a students phone number when fed the student's ID number. 

My own attempts to do simple tests using Postman or Workflow with Ethos also ended in failure. It's in stark contrast to Salesforce, where I was able to create a workflow that runs SOQL queries (special Salesforce data queries) as GETs and pulls in JSON of the query results in less than a day.

In Forms and Workflow we get data out of BANNER using Lookup Rules or Workflow queries against Oracle views created for us by our internal BANNER team.

To POST data into BANNER from Laserfiche we have one Workflow using Informatica to manually update BANNER db tables. And several other workflows using a custom API server built by our very smart Ellucian consultant with Linux/Apache/PHP. It too just makes direct edits to the database.
