OverviewOverview

This web service retrieves a list of skill summary records (PwsSkillSummaryElement), based on specified search criteria. The following parameters affect the list of skills retrieved:

  • QueryString: Searches within skill group name and skill name. Any skill containing this string in the skill name, or that is part of a skill group whose name contains this string is included.
  • IncludeInactiveFlag: If false, inactive skills are excluded from the results.
  • SkillGroupIdentity: If specified, only skills in the specified skill group are included. Note QueryString and IncludeInactiveFlag are ignored if SkillGroupIdentity is specified.
  • SkillIdentity: If specified, only the specified skill is included. Note QueryString and IncludeInactiveFlag are ignored if SkillIdentity is specified.

If both SkillGroupIdentity and SkillIdentity are specified, the specified skill must belong to the specified skill group, otherwise the request will fail.
