2 Introduction
The bxp API (Application Programming Interface) allows digital interaction with bxp without the need for a human to interact with bxp.
The bxp APP API is a subset of the bxp API designed specifically to work with APPs.
3 How it works
The APP API requires secure posts to be sent to the relevant system. This can be done using a number of DOM (Document Object Technologies)
The primary post is sent to https://ww3.allnone.ie/client/client_demo/cti/userAPP_Main.asp You must replace client_demo with the system you are communicating with.
A number of criteria must be passed for the process to work. The first process is a login process which will provide tokenisation for your app.
After login, all function calls must include the tokens in order for the API to respond correctly.
4 Functions
4.1 Login Function
Primary Function: Provide a login session token
You must post four key pair values. (not including the semi colons)
- strFunction:login
- strSystem:client_demo
- strClient_Username:Demo Account
- strClient_Password:demoPassword
The system will respond with XML.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<data>
<strFunction>login</function>
<intErrorId></intErrorId>
<strError></error>
<intClient_Id>123</userid>
<strClient_SessionField>asdfasdfasdf</strClient_SessionField>
</data>
4.2 Settings recall Function
Primary Function: Provide APP settings for the bxp app.
You must post four key pair values. (not including the semi colons)
- strFunction:settings
- strSystem:client_demo
- intClient_Id:123
- strClient_SessionField:asdfasdfasdf
The Client Id and Client Session Field are retrieved from the login process.
The system will respond with XML.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<data>
<strFunction>settings</function>
<intErrorId></intErrorId>
<strError></error>
Data to go here!
</data>
4.3 Diary Function
Primary Function: Provide listing of diary events
You must post five key pair values. (not including the semi colons)
- strFunction:diary
- strSystem:client_demo
- intClient_Id:123
- strClient_SessionField:asdfasdfasdf
- intDiary:1
The strFunction setting can have a number of settings.
- diary - defaults for today
- diary_today - explicitly today listing
- diary_tomorrow - explicitly tomorrow listing
- diary_thisweek - explicitly this week listing
- diary_nextweek - explicitly next week listing
- diary_thismonth - explicitly this month listing
- diary_nextmonth - explicitly next month listing
The intDiary is the specific diary to be queried.
The system will respond with XML.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<data>
<strFunction>diary</function>
<intErrorId></intErrorId>
<strError></error>
Data to go here!
</data>
5 History
This API was developed to further the work of Calvin O'Brien and Adam McGivern who work as interns in All n One developing the bxp APP for iPhone, Android and Microsoft devices.
