Description
If the X-Okapi-Token expires or becomes invalid, FOLIO will respond with unauthorized errors. When this happens we could do a couple things:
- Ignore it and just fail every command (our current strategy - not ideal).
- This would likely (should confirm) issue screen viewable errors to the SC and would require staff intervention to reconnect.
- Need to ensure every command can return some sort of reasonable SIP2 response when this type of failure occurs.
- Send an ACS status message indicating the ACS is offline as a response to all messages.
- It is unclear what would happen next here. Ideally, the SC would start sending login messages. It may send SC status messages instead. We'd need to experiment with/solicit information from various SCs/SC vendors to determine the behavior.
- When a FOLIO command fails with unauthorized, we could attempt to login and, if successful, re-issue the failed command.
- This requires edge-sip2 to hold on to the SCs credentials from the original login command. This may be viewed as a security issue.
- Kill the connection and hope the SC will reconnect with the login command.
- Something else? Maybe existing SC vendors can suggest how to handle this.
As far as these approaches go, number 2 seems like it would be the most in-line with the intent of the SIP2 protocol. Number 3 is probably the simplest to support, but with risk. Number 1 should be abandoned, since it likely requires staff intervention... perhaps the SC will send a login if X commands fail in a row? More likely, it will take itself offline.
