Server API

The main motivation behind offering a server API is to enable third-party applications to respond to events taking place in the Pixelsilk system.

What will the server API enable a developer to do?
The main motivation behind offering a server API is to enable third-party applications to respond to events taking place in the Pixelsilk system. Maybe an important adjunct to your website is your CRM software, and perhaps it would be strategically advantageous to have your CRM user interface reflect some of the data from your Pixelsilk website. The purpose of the server API is to make that sort of thing possible. When a page is added, when the items on a page change, when users are added or sign up for an email newsletter, your software and Pixelsilk (using the server API) can handle the notifications and data exchange that update your system automatically. The idea is for Pixelsilk to alert your third-party application that certain events have taken place and for your application to react by acquiring data from Pixelsilk or by delivering data to Pixelsilk.

Are the client API and the server API available for use at this time?
Although the client API does exist in partial form and is in use internally, it is not ready for authorized users. The server API is still in the design phase.
