REST Service

MoneyWorks Datacentre 6.1 and later can provide a REST API to allow programmatic access to databases from HTTP clients, as well as locally-hosted javascript web apps. Default port is 6710.

For developer documentation, see the manpage at x-man-page//moneyworks-rest (Mac) or on the web at http://cognito.co.nz/developer/category/REST

MoneyWorks Datacentre may also be accessed from a local command line client. For developer documentation, see the manpage at x-man-page//moneyworks (Mac) or on the web at http://cognito.co.nz/developer/cli-manual/

Note that logging in via CLI or REST will consume a concurrent login. If all concurrent logins are currently in use, any additional connection will be refused. If you wish to guarantee that you can log in via these interfaces, you can supply a unique Gold serial number (other than the one supplied as standard with the server), that is not used by any other user. Special REST-only serials are also available.

You can also optionally run a REST admin API for remote administration of the server. This requires that SSL is enabled on the REST port and that ASP mode is enabled.
