Ektron CMS400.Net Reference
You can connect to the Web Service API from a plug-in by using a Web service proxy. Calling a Web service proxy accessor creates a connection to a particular Web service. For example, using the GetContentProxy() creates a connection to the Web Service API Content.asmx.
When using the Web service proxy, the Web service connects to the site that produced the event. For example, if you have three sites and site two uses a plug-in with the OnBeforePublish event that calls a Web service, the Web service connects back to site two only.
Because the Plug-in Architecture and Ektron CMS400.NET run on the same server, no authentication is needed when making a Web Service API call. Once a connection is made, you can call any Web service method that is available. For information on Web service methods, click Help > Contents > Ektron Ektron CMS400.NET API Documentation > Ektron Namespace > Web Services API.
Below is a list of available Web service proxies.
Note: In the Web Service Connection column, the ... refers to/<site webroot>/Workarea/webservices/WebServiceAPI
