The XML-Interface is the core of the VA Integration Kit. It has been designed to give VA Administrators with the knowledge of dynamic web techniques the possibility to create their own layout and perfectly integrate the information into their own website using XML data from FSAirlines.
Basic Usage
The data can be received using HTTP calls to the interface script and add the desired function to the parameters. Here is an example request:
http://www.fsairlines.net/va_interface.php5?function=getPilotList&va_id=7
As you can see there is the interface script va_interface.php5, the function getPilotList and one function parameter va_id=7. Some functions require additional parameters, these can be appended after the va_id.
The result of the request will be given in xml format with the base-tag being <fsa_output>. This tag has the attributes version and success which show the version number of the interface and if the request succeeded or not. In case of a failure the success-attribute shows the error message. The following example shows the return text of the above function:
<fsa_output version="1.0" success="SUCCESS">
<data id="1" name="Konrad" surname="Pustka" va_user="SNA101" location="EDDM" lastactive="1287330550" budget="198144" />
<data id="2" name="Claudio" surname="Gusmini" va_user="SNA102" location="EDDM" lastactive="1286366261" budget="216405101" />
</fsa_output>
Inside the fsa_output-tag there are the data-tags which contain all the information.
To use this data in your own webpage you need some knowledge in dynamic web-programming, for example PHP. We can't give you a complete introduction into PHP, but you can always have a look at the Official FSAirlines Integration Pack and see how we readout the data there.
