SLIM CD provides a few different types of web services. The majority are Microsoft .NET web services that accept either name/value pairs or SOAP/XML. These have the extension .asmx. Others are simple web resources that accept name/value pairs and return content. These are either .asp or .ashx. Finally, we offer web resources that accept either name/value pairs or JSON and return JSON. These are also .asp web resources.

All of the above resources are available as methods/functions inside libraries that you can link directly into your application. These libraries allow you to access all of the functionality of the SLIM CD web services without having to handle the HTTP transmission or XML parsing. Instead, you simply set properties of the request object, call the method/function, and inspect properties of the reply object.
