Developer Documentation
If you are using a web service that requires client authentication, you will need an Application Certificate. For information on how to obtain and install one, see Application Certificate Documentation.
If you are using Java, you can build your client stubs in Eclipse. View the page attachments.
For Java developers, we recommend Spring and Acegi Security. The MIT Application Platform provides Acegi implementations that use the Authz web service.
We have three web services in the works:
- UA - User Authorization. Uses Roles. This is our first pass at a simple Web Service to get Roles information
- MITID - this is a wrapper around the MIT ID service. No changes to the underlaying database or the C client library for accessing it.
- Geo - a location service for getting geographic codes (latititude/longitude) from addresses, especially international addresses
attached are the To-Do list which explains the tasks, and the Excel spreadsheet with the schedule.
These web services will be part of the MIT Framework.
