Introduction

Feng-GUI has an open web Application Programming Interface (API for short).
This means that you can write your own program to integrate Feng-GUI technologies and services
in new and different ways.
For example, you could automate usability testing, Optimize your Ad placement , create a Photoshop plugin, etc'.

Developing on the Feng-GUI API

Anyone can write software to do cool stuff with available Feng-GUI technology via our API.
Here's how to get started:
1. Read the API documentation below. Don't forget to send us some feedback.
2. Get a user name and a password. email to:
3. After you have learned how to use API and you have your authentication credentials, build your own application.

API Format

To perform an action using the API, you need to select a calling convention (such as SOAP or XMLRPC), send a request to its endpoint specifying a method and some arguments, and will receive a formatted response.
XML-RPC format
SOAP format
* In the future we plan to add REST and JSON formats.

Authentication

User Authentication
Feng-GUI services required HTTP Basic authentication for all methods.
Public Beta members can receive a user name and password.
If you find HTTP Basic authentication as not secure enough for your needs, we can setup the service on HTTPS (HTTP+SSL).
Roles
A Role indicates the levels of permissions a User have while operating a method.
Your account is associated with one or more Roles, and it is most likely that your Roles depends on the Feng-GUI partnership level you have.
