Administrative Web Services API

ApplinX Administrative Web Services API provides the developer the capability to retrieve data and perform actions based on information received from ApplinX server in runtime, without accessing the ApplinX Designer or Administrator but rather using standard Web services.

These Web services can be used for the following:

Retrieving Server Information

Managing Connection Pools
Managing Connection Pools Connection Information Sets
Managing RPC Connection Pools

Note:
The user name required in this method refers to a user who has ApplinX server Administrator permissions.
