Integrations Agreements, sometimes called IAs, or Database Administrator Integration Agreements (DBIAs) are published Application Programmer Interfaces (APIs) to VistA code that are usable outside of the package that provides the agreement.

On the Wiki, each integration aggreement is on a page named IA ###, e.g. for integration agreement 167, the page [[IA 167]] documents that agreement.

The VA regularly pubishes the active agreements on the ftp site at

ftp://ftp.va.gov/vista/software/Integration%20Agreements/Active%20IAs%20by%20date.txt

The VA also publishes the retired agreements at:

ftp://ftp.va.gov/vista/software/Integration%20Agreements/Retired%20IAs.txt

and finally, the text of the agreements (in the form of a CAPTIONED output) are at:

ftp://ftp.va.gov/vista/software/Integration%20Agreements/Active%20IAs.txt

Here are the VistApedia archives of those:

* [[20080718_Active_IAs_by_date | Active IAs as of July 18, 2008 By Date]]
* [[20080718_Active_IAs_by_num | Active IAs as of July 18, 2008 By IA num]]
* [[20080718_Retired_IAs | Retired IAs as of July 18, 2008]]

The text of the agreements is on the individual IA pages
