Customization and API (Application Programming Interface)

Hi All, Just wondering - anybody got some info on the use of the new API? Experience in AD8.0 yet? or is there online help that I have missed? Sorry to bug you - but - it is listed here as a new feature - https://www.alibre.com/products/new-in-ad80.asp!

There was a post on this subject you may want to read

Michael (MIBE) seems to be our API guru around this place. :wink:

Hi Gaspar - yep - I read that thread - and - decided to start this one anyway! Twice the # of hits on a topic! (Plus the survey Q's)

Documentation isn't publicly available yet.

I posed this same question to Alibre support and was told that there is a service pack for 8.0 that is due to release in late Oct or 1st week of Nov at the latest. That service pack will include documentation for the API that you can access from inside the Alibre help system. They also said the documentation would be posted to the website at that time too.

I would place my bet on Michael (Mibe) as the misterious code writer.

I would also say that "Mibe" is 1 vote guy.

It's NOT I have not created anything useful yet... :-(

On the other hand - I got an early beta version of the documentation today, so I probably will try something cool this weekend ;-) If I have the time...
