Overview of Web Services APIs

API Descriptions
Calling The Web Services

TMCore provides several separate web services. Each of these services expose a number of methods which can be invoked either by a SOAP client or by simple HTTP page requests (e.g. using the AJAX architecture).

Rather than redundantly repeat a lot of information for both the SOAP and HTTP interfaces, we present each web service described in terms of the operation it performs, the parameters or XML document expected on the input and the XML document generated on the output. All of these factors are the same for both interface types.

The following sections provide an introduction to the description of the web services APIs and details on how the API descriptions presented later map into SOAP or HTTP requests and responses.
