We provide API resources just by using the web extension and returning JSON to 
validated queries. 
For example a customer device might make a request like:

https://online.myDomain.ca/4DACTION/API/API_GetAssets?key=8B99FB68&criteria=new&pretty=yes
 
<https://online.mydomain.ca/4DACTION/API/API_GetAssets?key=8B99FB68&criteria=new&pretty=yes>

would receive something like:

{
 "IosUpdateAvailable": "v0.5b2133",
 "Date": "2/29/20",
 "Time": "13:57:44",
 "Username": "Tom",
 "Query": {
  "key": "8B99FB68",
  "criteria": "new"
  "pretty": "yes"
 },
 "Result": {
  "SetUTC": "2020-02-29T20:57:45.367Z",
  "Status": "Success",
  "Assets": [
   {
    "esn": "0814IG3054E",
    "lat": 56.14575,
    "lon": -117.72689,
    "alt": 0,

    "localDT": "2/28/20 18:24:10",
     "UID": "A7250F54E0B34E679AF06E5A64B2101B",
     "modUTC": "2019-09-10T22:00:01.975Z",
     "Ident": "C-FHUY",
     }
     ]
    }
   }

Easy and fast!
Cheers,
Tom
