Programmer's Guide Includes:
Aside from mass notification through broadcastsand replacing aging school-bell-ringing systems, InformaCast can also be programmed to interact withother applications, creating custom functionality through two separate mechanisms:
- Web Services Application Programming Interface (API). Allows you to provide other applications (possibly running on separate servers across the network) with access to InformaCast’s functionality.
- Scripting Interface. Provides an opportunity to add new operations within InformaCast whencertain events take place (e.g. sending a specific message triggers an alarm within your building),and is also a way to access the functionality of other applications from within InformaCast.
The Web Services API is used if an external event needs to trigger something inside InformaCast. The Scripting Interface allows custom code to run inside of InformaCast at specific times, enabling InformaCast to alter its standard behavior and contact other systems.
