Overview

Emersion provides programmatic access to your organisation’s information using simple, powerful and secure application programming interfaces. Most APIs have been created as a result of collaborative efforts with our clients. Emersion is happy to consider extending or add new functionality on a case by case basis.

The Emersion SOAP API lets you integrate applications that can create, retrieve, update records managed by Emersion. Records such as accounts, services, package and service plans and other objects. With more than 70 different calls with the numbers predicted to climb, SOAP API also lets you to maintain passwords, perform searches and much more. You can use the SOAP API with any programming language that supports Web services.

Access to the APIs is via subscription only. For a quote to fit your requirements, please raise a Quote Request ('QR') ticket in the Emersion Support Portal or contact our Sales department.

API calls are broken into sets with set up and monthly access / usage fees applying per set.

Authentication is handled via a username and password. Some Emersion customers use an SSL certificates to authenticate, but this authentication method is now deprecated.


Testing APIs

Emersion does not provide a sandbox environment for APIs. To gain experience and guidance on the operations contained within an API, refer to this article.

Use Case Scenarios

These articles aim to assist developers understand various workflows and corresponding dependencies when using the APIs to perform tasks for a process.

Provider Based API Functionality

Fees may apply to have these configured, activated and maintained. If you are interested in subscribing to an optional module, please raise a new sales ticket by email to sales@emersion.com.au

For clarification on what is covered in your contract please contact Emersion.

Security and Access Controls

To integrate with Emersion’s API Framework, clients will need to implement a SOAP client that utilises a WSSE header for authentication.

Provider-level APIs

For Production, use; https://api.emersion.com.au/

End-User APIs

Please contact the Emersion Sales department for the URLs to use for end user APIs.

APIs for Service Providers

Advanced APIs for Service Providers

Customer Signup APIs for Service Providers

Products APIs

Package Plan APIs

End User Portal APIs

Service Category-Specific APIs

End User APIs

Code Samples

You can use these samples as a starting point in you implementation.

Please note that certificate files are placeholders.

They need to be replaced by real certificates to make the code work.
