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.
- OData Open Data Protocol (OData) is an open protocol which allows the creation and consumption of SmartSimple data in a standard way. .
