ILIAS Plugin SLA

We love and live the philosophy of Open Source Software! Most of our developments, which we develop on behalf of customers or in our own work, we make publicly available to all interested parties free of charge at https://github.com/srsolutionsag.

Do you use one of our plugins professionally? Secure the timely availability of this plugin also for future ILIAS versions by signing an SLA. Find out more about this at https://sr.solutions/plugins.

Please note that we only guarantee support and release maintenance for institutions that sign an SLA.

Installation

Start at your ILIAS root directory

mkdir -p Customizing/global/plugins/Services/WebServices/SoapHook
cd Customizing/global/plugins/Services/WebServices/SoapHook
git clone https://github.com/studer-raimann/SoapAdditions.git

As ILIAS administrator go to "Administration->Plugins" and install/activate the plugin.

Usage

http://localhost:8053/webservice/soap/server.php

becomes
