Abstract

A computer-readable medium storing instructions for a universal API (Application Programming Interface) for multiple network resources. The instructions cause a processor to perform receiving, from a user interface, a request associated with a set of different network resources. The request includes one or more operations for the different network resources. The instructions may cause parsing the request to identify each of the operations, and performing the operations on the network resources. The instructions may also cause collecting, from the network resources, responses to the operations that were performed; and generating a consolidated response that includes the responses. The consolidated response may be generated according to a schema defining valid syntax for communications.

Dependent claims

A server system comprising a processor, and a computer-readable storage medium accessible to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:

provide a universal application programming interface (U-API) having a universal syntax to enable provision of a user interface (UI);
receive, at the processor, via the U-API and from the UI, a request in the universal syntax to perform an operation with a first network resource and with a second network resource, wherein the operation comprises a query operation that accesses data associated with financial services of the first network resource and the second network resource and a mutation operation that alters data associated with financial services of the first network resource and the second network resource;
parse the received request to identify the operation;
generate a first request in a first syntax to perform the operation with the first network resource, wherein the first syntax differs from the universal syntax;
generate a second request in a second syntax to perform the operation with the second network resource, wherein the second syntax differs from the universal syntax and differs from the first syntax;
transmit the first request, via a network, to a first remote device that provides the first network resource;
transmit the second request, via the network, to a second remote device that provides the second network resource;
receive, via the network and from the first remote device, a first response in the first syntax to the first request that is indicative of a first result of performing the operation with the first network resource;
receive, via the network and from the second remote device, a second response in the second syntax to the second request that is indicative of a second result of performing the operation with the second network resource;
convert the first response into the universal syntax from the first syntax;
convert the second response into the universal syntax from the second syntax;
consolidate the converted first response and the converted second response into a single consolidated response in the universal syntax;
and
provide the single consolidated response to the UI via the U-API.

receive, at the processor, via the U-API and from the UI, a request in the universal syntax to perform an operation with a first network resource and with a second network resource, wherein the operation comprises a query operation that accesses data associated with financial services of the first network resource and the second network resource and a mutation operation that alters data associated with financial services of the first network resource and the second network resource;
parse the received request to identify the operation;
generate a first request in a first syntax to perform the operation with the first network resource, wherein the first syntax differs from the universal syntax;
generate a second request in a second syntax to perform the operation with the second network resource, wherein the second syntax differs from the universal syntax and differs from the first syntax;
transmit the first request, via a network, to a first remote device that provides the first network resource;
transmit the second request, via the network, to a second remote device that provides the second network resource;
receive, via the network and from the first remote device, a first response in the first syntax to the first request that is indicative of a first result of performing the operation with the first network resource;
receive, via the network and from the second remote device, a second response in the second syntax to the second request that is indicative of a second result of performing the operation with the second network resource;
convert the first response into the universal syntax from the first syntax;
convert the second response into the universal syntax from the second syntax;
consolidate the converted first response and the converted second response into a single consolidated response in the universal syntax;
and
provide the single consolidated response to the UI via the U-API.

11 more elements

A computer-implemented method comprising:

providing, by at least one processor, a universal application programming interface (U-API) having a universal syntax to enable provision of a user interface (UI);
receiving, at the at least one processor, via the U-API and from the UI, a request in the universal syntax to perform an operation with a first network resource and with a second network resource, wherein the operation comprises a query operation that accesses data associated with financial services of the first network resource and the second network resource and a mutation operation that alters data associated with financial services of the first network resource and the second network resource;
parsing the received request to identify the operation;
generating, by the at least one processor, a first request in a first syntax to perform the operation with the first network resource, wherein the first syntax differs from the universal syntax;
generating, by the at least one processor, a second request in a second syntax to perform the operation with the second network resource, wherein the second syntax differs from the universal syntax and differs from the first syntax;
transmitting the first request, via a network, to a first remote device that provides the first network resource;
transmitting the second request, via the network, to a second remote device that provides the second network resource;
receiving, via the network and from the first remote device, a first response in the first syntax to the first request that is indicative of a first result of performing the operation with the first network resource;
receiving, via the network and from the second remote device, a second response in the second syntax to the second request that is indicative of a second result of performing the operation with the second network resource;
converting, by the at least one processor, the first response into the universal syntax from the first syntax;
converting, by the at least one processor, the second response into the universal syntax from the second syntax;
consolidating, by the at least one processor, the converted first response and the converted second response into a single consolidated response in the universal syntax;
