Need an API that we could search using ISBN that would tell us what we own in E and P and also tell us what is available to purchase
Need an API that we could search using ISBN or a few other select identifiers that would tell us what we own in E and P and also tell us what is available to purchase with format, price and licensing info. It would also be necessary to have the search function similarly to the way it does in Rialto with a fuzzy match/FRBR type logic based on an exact match option or fuzzy match option in the API call. It would also be desired to perhaps then be able to "batch" order a set of the items after processing either through an upload back to Rialto or again via API. The ordering part is secondary though. First just getting an API search functionality would be ideal.
The Rialto team has reviewed this idea but at this time it does not align with our roadmap initiatives. We appreciate your feedback and encourage you to continue to participate in the Ideas Exchange process.
Best,
Heidi Whitehead
Rialto Product Manager

While waiting on an API, perhaps this enhancement idea would enable at least some of the automation we would be hoping to get from an API: https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/940011-rialto/suggestions/45443851-add-fields-to-market-search-export
