Introduction to using APIs in Alma

Back to Schedule Check-inYou can join session 5 minutes before start time.

Session Information

This session will  

 1. Demonstrate how to create an API key and how to limit the functionality of the API.  

2. Show how APIs can be used to retrieve an analytics report in XML 

3. Show how APIs can be used to retrieve, update and create bibliographic records, users, sets, and more 

 

Note that this session will not include building applications that use the APIs but will show how the APIs can be run and tested using the Ex Libris Developers Network. 

This is the first step before building a specific application. We will, therefore, see the specific syntax needed for the different APIs.
