FirstClass 12 has a fully supported and documented Application Programming Interface (API) that will allow web developers to retrieve authenticated secure information from their FirstClass Collaborative system, and display it within their own web site.
How the API works within the FirstClass 12 ecosystem.
The FirstClass 12 API will use FirstClass Web Services (FCWS) which facilitates access to secure FirstClass Server data and functionality for any web-based client using HTML 5. Requests issued to FCWS are translated and securely sent to the FirstClass server for processing. The FirstClass Server responses are processed by FCWS and subsequently sent back to the web client.
The following video contains a feature length walkthrough of the new FirstClass 12 API.
