This repository offers a quicker and more convenient way to check the queue of your application when you apply for an extended residence permit to the Finnish Immigration Service, or Migri.
NOTE: The codes have only been tested and applied for study RP and job-seeking RP types of applications, with the diary number in the form of xxxxx/xxx/xxxx,so please use at your own discretion.
Since Migri does not provide the API for us to use the Kamu Chatbot from distance, what I did was to get the request from the Network tab of Chrome's inspect of the website when I submitted the suitable information to the chatbot on Migri's website.
I built a simple user interface with HTML and Javascript, using some properties of PaperCSS for design. You can visit the website here and check where you are in queue right now.
I wanted to use a diverse tech stack, so I implemented the backend with Python/Flask. At the moment, there are two endpoints:
- '/': homepage of the backend.
- '/check/': API endpoint to check for RP queue number.
You can test via this link
Since there is no direct API endpoint, I utilized Python's subprocess package, and run Linux commands with shell in Python.
There are two ways for users to look up the information.
- Insert the diary number as a command line argument
python main.py <xxxxx/xxx/xxxx>- If not, just run the program as usual.
python main.pyThere will be a prompt at the beginning of running the program. Then you can enter your diary number.
For the Node.js version, I managed to get the request in the form of a fetch statement, including the necessary headers and parameters.
