Re: Json using tokens

[B Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,  from the many systems I've connected with, they're all so different
it's hard to make a one size fits all application.

If you're getting tokens with just user id and password (which Greg
mentioned, and I know Vertex does), I do have a solution for that at
www.bvstools.com/vtcloud.html.

I also have many other solutions.  But some require HTTPS callbacks to your
server which makes things a little trickier (well, a lot actually) for
initial setup.  There are ways around that sometime but to be honest, when
I see how people do them they have to be security holes that will be
plugged sometime.

Let us know who you're connecting with.  Maybe there is a solution out
there, or if it is one that I have already done can modify to be available
as a product.
