# Getting Known Fact Questions

# How to get Known Fact Questions

Once a service has been identified the known facts, or more specifically the known fact questions that the user needs to supply answers to, are required.

The SOAP Public Interface GsoGetServiceInfo method provides this information. It takes the name of the service and returns all the key information about the service, including:

- Service Owner
- Level of credential required to use the service
- Service description/help information
- Business transactions (forms supported by the service)
- Identifiers
- Known Facts – for each known fact this includes, a prompt for the information the user is required to supply and an example value.
- Service Rules – list the valid combinations of know facts
