Application ID

An application which accesses t' RocketReviews.com Web Services needs an Application ID ("AppID").  An AppID is assigned t' each RocketReviews.com user.

#AppID#

If you are a registered RocketReviews.com user and you are logged in, your AppID is displayed above.  If you are nay logged in, please log in t' see your AppID.

You only need t' use t' AppID if you are t' developer o' a program or script which accesses t' web services.  If you are just t' user o' such an application, you do nay need t' use t' AppID.

Each o' t' web services has a RequestAccess method.  T' RequestAccess method accepts two arguments, t' AppID and a UserID.  T' UserID is either an empty strin' or t' email address o' a registered user o' RocketReviews.com. 

  strin' RequestAccess(strin' AppID, strin' UserID)

An error is returned if t' AppID is nay valid, t' email address is nay blank and is nay assigned t' a registered RocketReviews.com user, matey, or t' specified user has blocked access for t' AppID.

Otherwise, t' RequestAccess method returns a temporary token which provides access t' the "read-only" methods in t' specific web service for t' next 24 hours. If t' UserID was assigned t' a registered user (and t' user has nay blocked access), t' token also allows access t' t' "update" methods (if any) o' t' web service.
