The purpose of the API is to integrate UNIWeb with other systems within your organization. The API provides secure read/write access to information stored by UNIWeb, and it provides a mechanism to eliminate the need to duplicate data.
The UNIWeb API provides:
- An interface that allows you to control who has access to your institution's data through our API.
- A means by which to securely read and update your institution's information.
- Rich data in simple, straightforward JSON for maximum readability and reusability.
- The choice to pre-filter the requested data, to obtain just the subset of information in which you are interested.

An example reference client for the Uniweb API is written in PHP and can be installed via Composer.
$ composer require proximify/uniweb-api
A simple way to test the client is to use the PHP built-in web server. To launch the built-in web server, change directory to the www
folder within the website project, and start the web server there.
$ cd vendor/proximify/uniweb-api/www/ && php -S localhost:8000
While the PHP web server is running, the URL http://localhost:8000
should display the website.
