Support API: Configuration Tools for the LuxSci Software Platform

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

The LuxSci Software Platform allows organizations to run LuxSci’s software on their own servers, in their own data center(s), supported by their own staff.  This is very flexible and cost effective and used by ISPs and other organizations with moderate to large numbers of users. LuxSci has just released a "Support API" for such organizations so that many of the standard support tasks can be automated or controlled by external systems.

LuxSci User API Enhancements for Calendars and Tasks

Friday, February 10th, 2006

LuxSci’s User Application Programming Interface (API) now supports querying, import and export of calendar and tasks data for users with WebAide Enterprise Licenses. Together with the previously existing facility to query, import and export address book data via our API, programs can now be written to remotely access address book, calendar, and task information via secure SOAP-based Web Services calls.

Account API Additions

Saturday, August 20th, 2005

LuxSci’s Account API has been expanded to allow account administrators to perform many new functions in an automated fashion:

  • Add and delete domains
  • Add and delete email aliases
  • Get reports on the status of any or all domains in their account
  • Get reports on the status of any or all email aliases and email forwards in their account.

These new API functions are supported by both the Web Services and the CGI Account API interfaces.

New API Function - Copy Preferences

Saturday, July 9th, 2005

LuxSci’s account management API now supports a new command called “Copy Preferences”. This command allows you to copy all of the preferences that one user has to another user in your account. Thus, it is easy to force a user to have the same regional preferences and WebMail behavior as any other user of your choice.

User Creation Update:When an account administrator creates a new user via the LuxSci portal or via the API, the new user’s complete preferences will be copied from the account’s main administrator. Previously, just selected regional preferences were copied. Now, all applicable preferences are copied, making the new user’s initial experience as close to that as the main account administrator’s as possible.

Note that if you are creating new users via the API, you can optionally specify any existing user from which to copy the new user’s preferences.

New Web Services API uses SOAP

Saturday, July 9th, 2005

LuxSci has extended its Account Management API to support access via Web Services using your choice of RPC or Document Literal SOAP encodings. Detailed help and examples can be found in LuxSci’s members’ help. LuxSci still fully supports its secure form post-based interface to the same API.Note that the API is available to all clients at no additional charge. Contact our support staff if you would like API access enabled for your account.

New User API

Wednesday, June 1st, 2005

LuxSci has introduced a User API that allows users to access user-level information and perform user-level functions over Web Services. Currently, User API access is limited to users with an Enterprise WebAide license and it allows these users to: import, export, and synchronize address book data with their WebAide Address Books. It also allows access to some information from the user’s current Private Labeled Theme to permit similar private labeling of remote programs and web sites.

Administrative Feature Additions

Friday, March 25th, 2005
  • The User Management pages have been revised to grant account administrators more control over being able to configure their users without needing to login as the user him/herself. Among other things, account administrators can now review and configure the following email tools for their users: Email Filtering, Basic Spam and Virus Filtering, Email Forwarding, Email Folders, WebMail Signatures, and Email AutoResponders.
  • A new “Database Management” tool has been added under your Account Administration page. Administrators of web hosting accounts can use this tool to manually add and delete MySQL databases in their account.
  • A new “Reports” section under your Account Administration page consolidates all global reports and also includes information about current disk and bandwidth usage.
  • A new “Advanced Administration Tools” page has been added under your Account Administration page. This page gives account administrators the ability: 1. to configure their account’s password strength checking rules, 2. to optionally disable the change password tool so users cannot change their own passwords, 3. to enable automatic deletion and/or disabling of users who have not logged in in a long time, 4. to change the main account administrator, 5. to change the default domain for the account, and 6. to change their account disk and bandwidth quota types. Accounts with access to our API will also find their API configuration tools here.
