Maian Guardian API

The Maian Guardian API is a powerful feature that allows remote operations from other sofware and/or websites. Before using the API, make sure you have set an API key in your settings. You should also enable debug mode until you are sure your system is working correctly.

The API offers two options, these are detailed below. You should have a good understanding of PHP and remote calls to use this option.

The standard API lets you send data to your guardian installation to create accounts for users to log in and download licenses. This is the easier of the two options and requires minimal updates to your applications code.

The license API is more complicated unless you are an advanced programmer. This options stores no information in your guardian installation at all, it simply generates a license. All updates and operations are handled in your own application.

All responses from the Maian Guardian API are via HTTP headers or JSON, depending on your preference. Your response handler should do the correct action accordingly based on the response. HTTP is default. If you want to enable JSON, do so via the 'control/options.php' file and the 'API_RESPONSE' option.
