Versatile and Efficient System Integration – Avoid Creating New Information Silos

Open in All Directions – JAMES is prepared for integration into your existing infrastructure:

Direct Connection to the SMC Editorial System – Information Packages at the Push of a Button

As a product from the same company, the SMC editorial system is perfectly aligned with the Content Delivery Server, making it an ideal content provider. The data available in SMC can be transferred to the CDS in various – but always convenient – ways: Integrated production in CDS and synchronization with CDS Automation of integration production through production orders The metadata created in the editorial environment is, of course, also transferred and can be used directly there.

Integration with Existing Authentication and Authorization Services According to Current Standards

JAMES enables the use of LDAP or oAuth2 for user authentication. This allows existing user directories (e.g., Windows Directory Server) to be integrated. Additionally, CDS, the portal, and the SMC Mobile App are implemented using the OAuth 2.0 standard, which utilizes the current standard for web authentication.

Import Taxonomies from External Sources via the RDFS Standard

Taxonomies described via RDFS (1.1) can be imported and used as search structures. Typically, only an appropriate configuration is necessary. Import of the iiRDS metadata file is already possible by default.

Use the Modern REST API to Automate Various Input/Output Tasks with Specific Implementations

The modern REST API can be used to automate various input/output tasks with specific implementations. Through the REST API, any documentation from existing software (e.g., knowledge, project, or product management) can be imported. This allows JAMES to serve as a central access point to your corporate knowledge. Additionally, search queries can be sent to JAMES via the REST API. In this way, the contents of the CDS can be integrated into any corporate services. The content can be delivered natively in HTML5 or XML. On request, any other output format provided by SMC can be delivered via the REST API (e.g., Word, PDF, online help).

And Much More….

In addition to the mentioned standard integrations, specific connections to other systems are also always possible.
