ONE Record API - Reference Specification

Note on this draft: This reference specification is a draft. This means that it is subject to edits. Discussion on this specification is highly encouraged and please contact onerecord@iata.org with any comments or suggested improvements.   

Overview

ONE Record specifies the API and security model for data exchange over the Internet of Logistics. In fact, ONE Record is essentially the specification of the Internet of Logistics. The Internet of Logistics or IoL is the collection of all ONE Record Clients and Servers. In the Internet of Logistics companies can exchange data as needed. They can host and publish Logistics Objects on ONE Record Servers and their partners can access these Logistics Objects using ONE Record Clients. Logistics Objects are also created or updated using this same ONE Record Server API.

In order to optimize the data flows in this Internet of Logistics, ONE Record provides for a Publish & Subscribe model. This requires that the ONE Record Clients implement a subscription API to which the ONE Record Server can publish new and updated Logistics Objects

This document is in three parts. The first part specifies the ONE Record Server API, the second part concerns the security model and the third part covers the Publish-Subscribe model which includes the ONE Record Client API.
