Description
Are you assigned to an integration project? Or would you like to be?

All systems are connected, they talk to each other. As a business analyst you need to understand the APIs and be ready to use them in the requirements.

Are you curious what needs to be specified about the client side and the server side? Which side are you working on? Would you like to prepare sequence diagrams to present the flow of the messages?

This course will give you a technical undestanding about those topics and many more - about the main communication protocols and system security.

As a business analyst you need to prepare proper user stories - this course helps you understand how to break down the information into implementation tasks and what needs to be described in those tasks.

System integration is an important topic. There is no universal system that does everything. Each system is dedicated to specific functions and connects to other systems - to provide data or to consume data. The Business analyst is the one who prepares the requirements and specifies how each side behaves - the client or the server. This documentation is important for the developers and the QAs - to implement exactly what is needed and to make sure it works in the expected way.

Who this course is for:
- Business analysts who are going to work on integration projects
