Hi
I've been given a heads up on a task that might coming my way. I don't have
full details yet but understand that it involves getting the access
application to connect to a web application to get quotes. All I have so far
is that it may involve http POST requests and XML messaging. We will be
provided a user name, password and digital certificate.
Whilst I await further information I am simply trying to get an idea of what
this might entail. Looking through the forum I have found some information
regarding http posts and from what I can gather I may be sending an XML
document, presumably first created by the access app, with the data necessary
for the quote and will receive an XML response.
Obviously the response will contain the quote data but not exactly sure as to
the XML 'object' that I will receive and how I pull this into the database.
It may be as simple as receiving an XML doc that immediately gets imported or
gets saved first and then imported.
Just wondering whether anyone else has experience in this type of area, what
may be involved and its complexity as I do not want to promise what I can't
deliver.
Thanks again
