LongJump provides a multitude of means to bring data in and out of the application platform and to connect to existing and legacy business systems quickly.
The LongJump API (application programming interface) offers a programmatic interface between LongJump and third-party web application or web services to get and put LongJump data. The LongJump web services API uses REST-based XML calls to:
- open a secure session into the platform
- view, add, delete, update objects, fields and records
- search across objects
- use POST and GET commands to submit and retrieve data
The web services API guide is available here.
LongJump's platform supports delivery of SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages using its data policy engine. You can define comprehensive data policies using the browser interface to detect changes in data and drive an XML SOAP message to another external system.
When real-time integration is not always necessary, LongJump provides bulk loading via CSV (comma separated value) formatted files. Bulk loading can be performed on as a one-time basis, or scheduled for ongoing data updates across various systems. LongJump's internal mapping and merging logic provides assurances for optimal data quality during uploads.
User-definable web forms provide a way to embed code into any HTML page that can be directly used to add a new record into LongJump. LongJump provides the code as both a single-line of JavaScript or as raw <FORM> code that users can customize to fit the theme of their site.
