Finding Data and Information

A POI mapping document has been created and posted to ERCOT.com: http://www.ercot.com/services/mdt/index.html

The mapping document provides a list of all current POI products with information on whether the product transitions to the MIS, is deleted or archived, the new name of the MIS product and the posting information. Note: This list will not be maintained

EMIL

A list of all required external products and their corresponding attributes are found in the ERCOT Market Information List (EMIL). As of 09/29/2014, the updated R5 EMIL posting will include all transitioned POI products. This is the official reference document for all external products and is updated with every scheduled release. http://www.ercot.com/services/mdt/userguides/index.html

External Web Services (EWS):

All POI documents will have an associated Report Type ID listed in the EMIL. This ID is used to programmatically download information using the External Web Service (EWS) GetReport.

EWS XSD Information and EIP Specifications on creating and using EWS and GetReport is available at: http://www.ercot.com/services/mdt/xsds/index.html

MIS Extract and Report Index:
