FIProfile Class
Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings Errors
The FIProfile control is a single class that supports the SignOn and FI Profile functions of Open Financial eXchange, as described by the OFX Specification version 1.0.2.
Syntax
ipworksofx.Fiprofile
Remarks
The FIProfile class provides the ability to download an OFX Financial Institution Profile. These profiles contain information about how to communicate with the financial institution, such as what message sets are supported and what URLs to post to for them as well as the type of data that is supported for sign on.
To use the FIProfile class, first identify the financial institution by setting the FIId, FIOrganization and FIUrl, properties. Next identify the OFX user and application by setting the OFXUser, OFXPassword, OFXAppId and OFXAppVersion properties. Use the ClientRouting property to notify the server as to the client's routing capabilities. Finally, set the LastUpdate property to the date of the most recent profile request. Then just call the GetProfile method to retrieve the financial institution's profile.
To determine whether the client has the latest version of the FI profile, the server checks the date and time passed by the client in LastUpdate. If the client has the latest version of the FI profile, the server does not return a profile specific response. In this case, the ServerMessage will contain the message returned by the server (such as: 'Up to date', etc.).
