Added a new section to Mozealous.com this weekend… AO API Samples. We recently released the AO API which opens up a whole new realm of possibilities of what you can do with Articulate Online. For example, maybe you want to integrate your Articulate Online account with paypal so that customers can pay you to view your eLearning content, or maybe you want to automatically log users in from your site to Articulate Online. All these things are now possible with the AO API.
Anyway, in the AO API section of mozealous.com I am going to be posting some examples of applications I have built that use the AO API. My first application was a “Self-Registration” web-app that allows you to have users manually register themselves on your Articulate Online account. Well, if you are interested, find out more at the link below:

Hi Dave – this is very interesting. I am in my 30 day free AO time. This self-registration is interesting. We want to pay for people to enter our potential AO site, but we also want some authentication. When they self-register, we want to ensure that this person is actually a customer of ours. Once authenticated, another window should come up as some kind of confirmation that they must agree to and states that they will be billed the $X. If they confirm, we would want not only an email sent to them, but also to our Finance department as a way of letting them know to get a PO to the customer. The customer can get in before paying, but they should understand that the PO will be sent.
Also – is there a way to put an “expiration date’ with a user, so that after a certain period of time, say 1 year, their user name will not work?
Thanks Dave,
Sam
Sounds cool Sam. All of what you are looking to do is possible with the AO API, and doesn’t require much to modify my code to get what you are looking for.
>is there a way to put an “expiration date’ with a user, so that after a certain period of time, say 1 year, their user name will not work?
Currently there is not an API function to set an expiration date, but it wouldn’t be hard to setup a program, using the API to automatically remove access for the user.
Good luck.
