EASY Business Interface Services (EBIS) provide basic functions for accessing, searching and storing documents. This will enable accessing any ECM, CMS or DMS systems via a simple API (Application Programming Interface). This access is via the preconfigured logical system.

This documentation describes the initial steps required to create your own applications using the EBIS client components. In doing so, it is assumed that the user masters the programming language used and is generally familiar with the development environment used.

The terms EBIS server and EBIS client used in this documentation refer to an installed EBIS plug-in and the associated client components, which allow accessing objects via the server's REST interface which are provided by the EBIS plug-in.

"Getting Started" and reference documentation make getting started with creating EBIS client applications easier. If you require additional information, please note the EASY SOFTWARE training course offer. In addition, individual workshops can be requested from the respective EASY partners.

The EBIS client components are .Net Core capable, and currently available for Java version 1.8 or higher as well as for Microsoft .Net Framework version 4.0 or higher.

Communication to the EBIS plug-in is performed respectively via the EBIS REST API. The client API encapsulates the REST calls, providing the developer with a convenient object model, the hallmark of which is ease of use.
