Rest API & Web Service

Web Services and Rest API are flexible ways to exchange information with OfficeClip. Most objects support simple operations like:

• Get all information for a particular object type.
• Get information for a particular key.
• Insert, update, and remove information.

Working with these APIs requires exposure to the current technology and programming concepts. Detailed help documentation is available to guide a user through making these changes.

Rest API

REST-compliant Web services allow requesting systems to access and manipulate textual representations of Web resources using a uniform and predefined set of stateless operations.
