Just curious - for the latter case, why wouldn't you just create a Web Service for your application using the admin tool, and then use Java to talk to that?
Regarding the original question, there are many options depending on your platform. The ones I am familiar with - Remedy's own C API, Remedy's own Java API, Remedy's .NET and COM API (from the dev community), and then open source: RTL (C++), joarse (Java on Windows/Linux, hopefully soon Solaris), coarse (again, JScript or VBScript), and ARSPerl. My opinion? If you are on Windows and want something quick, simple, and dirty, just install either one of the two COM apis and write a quick JScript file. If you're on Linux, I'd probably pick joarse.

Unless some one wanted to go to the trouble of writing all of this stuff via a generic Web Service so that the MAC client could talk WS to the Mid-Tier server then talk ARS API back to the ARS server from there. (And it would require a Mid-Tier('ish) server for the config to work.) But that could be done too... -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two.
