As I've worked on PromoStandards-related projects over the past few years, I've found some resources to be particularly helpful. I thought I'd share some of the in this post.
The Official PromoStandards Web Site
http://promostandards.org/I turn to the official site for the latest services documentation, WSDLs, supplier service information, and more.
The PromoStandards Service API
http://promostandards.org/documentation/service_api/The service API is a RESTful, JSON-based API that makes it possible to query the PromoStandards database to get lists of participating companies, supported services, endpoints, and more.
The PromoStandards LinkedIn Group
https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8620628The PromoStandards LinkedIn Group is the place to go to keep up with PromoStandards. Events are posted here, and it's also a great place to ask technical questions.
The PromoStandards Github Repository
https://github.com/promostandardsThe PromoStandards team maintains a Github repository. Use it to access sample code, including client code written in PHP, C#, Java, and .NET.
PromoStandards Web Service Validator
https://services.promostandards.org/webserviceValidator/homeUse this tool to validate requests being made to, and responses received from, supplier endpoints.
What is Promo Standards?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFmJxwrgLwEIf you're new to PromoStandards and trying to make sense of it all, or need to quickly bring someone up to speed on what the initiative is all about, check out this video. It was created by David Jackson at Sweda.
Paw
https://paw.cloudPaw is an advanced API tool for the Mac. I use is to test PromoStandards services, develop and test my own APIs, and more. Highly recommended!
