The latest versions of WinMAGI (builds 821332 and above) now have inbuilt API functions that allow 3rd party applications, such as a web browser, to create and update customer details, shipping addresses, create new sales orders and query data in the WinMAGI database. The API’s open up WinMAGI to outside development using standard JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) so that data can be communicated to and from different applications and systems. Access is secured by the use of API keys.
All the standard WinMAGI field validation rules apply when updating data into WinMAGI so as to ensure that any data updates made to WinMAGI are valid. If any field fails validation, no updates are performed.
The API functions provide a standard tool set for enhanced 3rd party application access to WinMAGI.
