An application programming interface (API) is a specification intended to be used as an interface by software components to communicate with each other.

SmartSimple supports four different APIs.

  • JSON based API (Named SmartConnect). This is current and fully supported API. SmartSimple plans to enhance this API for the foreseeable future .
  • Web Services API to support server to server communication via the Internet – Apache Axis2 based.
