Yes and No.
I know of no current web services that are supported out of the box. That is, there is no soap listener service available to take your requests. But, the SA API is open, so you can easily build your own web services hosted in several ways that could talk to the API direcly. You could even stand up Ajax stuff if you wanted. ------------------------- -- Cheers, Patrick |

For SA API, do you mean the COM or the VBA?

Hi Jeffry,
Regarding COM, Possible BUT. please not that SA is STA Server!!!! it means that when you'll call the COM objects SA will be opened. the default windows server configuration doesn't support such a behavior from web application and you need to configure that. Using the direct API .... never tried it before from web service. another approach is to use OLE DB provider or DB flattener and to work against the data. |

A couple of years ago, at a SA Tech Connect meeting in VA, there was a discussion about how SA-XT provides a WSDL/SOAP compliant interface to SA and the repository. There was a product call ProSight (bought by Primavera and now Oracle) that was creating an interface between their application and the SA repository to automate transfer of content between the two systems. When describing their interface, they mentioned this web-service interface to SA via SA-XT. I don't know where it went since then.
