Configure Master Calendar to Use the Master Calendar API Web Service

Once you meet the prerequisites, download the installation files, run the Master Calendar Installer, Install/upgrade the Database Component, and Install/upgrade the Web Service, you will configure Master Calendar to use the API Web Service as shown below:

You Use a Pre-Defined Master Calendar User Account to Authenticate the Master Calendar Web Service.

External applications require a pre-defined Master Calendar User account to authenticate to the Master Calendar Web Service. The Master Calendar User account should not be granted any rights within the Master Calendar application itself. The Master Calendar Installation Guide provides instructions on how to create a Master Calendar user account. In the Sample Code examples provided in the API Functions section, you use the Master Calendar account created here for UserID and Password.

1. Create a Master Calendar User Account to use for configuring the Web Service.
2. Make a note of this user account's UserID and Password for future use when authenticating your Web Service.
