I am assuming you are using C++ to code to the API. This is not as
common, and most of the tools are done for other languages like Java,
that said. You can read the Development guide which includes
information about which interface to use, or what tool to use. Even a
Macro could be much easier to do if all you want is to code to the
document as opposed to the application.

There are many guides that talk about all the things you just
mentioned here are some links:
