The goal was to encompass all of the changes and issues reported throughout last year and implement solutions going forward. We\u2019ve also been working on developing the foundation for many exciting additions that will premiere at various times throughout this year! <\/p>\n<p>One of the core implementations that happened last week was a <i>revision to our Hosted Exchange account automation software<\/i>. This component is responsible for handling the ordering process for <i>Hosted Exchange, Public Folders, Distribution Groups, and External Contacts<\/i>. What this translates into is a \u201cfaster &amp; more accurate\u201d ordering process for our partners and their clients. We\u2019ve also implemented a more intelligent logging system that will allow us troubleshoot and possibly script automatic corrections when an issue does occur within our software. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also been making several additions to the <i>public API<\/i> as we speak with more and more partners who are <i>interested in having a viable integration into our software<\/i>. We recently added the ability to limit results based on a \u2018lastupdate\u2019 timestamp and implemented several invoice methods to retrieve information from the accounting module. We are still working on and exploring the possibilities of enhancing the current Restful API and implementing a SOAP counterpart. <\/p>\n<p>So in summary, we have <i><strong>finished our January goals<\/strong><\/i> and have<em><strong> completed the majority of the core framework for our future projects<\/strong><\/em>. I can\u2019t discuss these projects yet, but once they get closer to release I will provide a technical overview of how they work and what to expect when using these applications. <\/p>\n<p>Hank Newman<br \/>VP Development, ExchangeDefender<br \/>hank@ownwebnow.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-343","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-exchangedefender"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=343"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1353,"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343\/revisions\/1353"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=343"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=343"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.exchangedefender.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=343"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
