Web Services are an industry-standard way of integrating web-based or Internet-connected applications using open standard protocols, such as Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP).
The Archer Web Services API is a collection of web services that provide a programmatic interface for interacting with Archer. Each web service supports multiple methods that can be used together to automate the exchange of information between Archer and an external application.
