eFresh Client API


The eFresh Client API component provides an easy way to add eFresh transaction capability to Windows based applications. It handles all security and communications with the eFresh server. It is available as an OCX module.

The client application using the eFresh Client API just needs to pass the API the product information that it needs and the API will connect securely to the eFresh server and retrieve that product.

Simply reference this component from your application and then assign values to the necessary parameters. The component will build a request string, encrypt it, and transmit the data to the eFresh server, as well as receive the encrypted response, which is decrypted and return to the calling application.

The key features of the component include:

connects with eFresh Server
accesses security key stored on smart card
supports dial up and TCP connections
supports server to server connections
provides 64 bit encryption
supports modified DUKPT key management scheme
supports built-in error detection
provides fast integration using DLL or OCX component.

The API is provided with a test application and the test application's Visual Basic source code as an example to aid the developer.



Client Development and SDK
eFresh Client Development
While VendTek continues to develop eFresh client applications, we also recognize there are situations where it is desirable for customers or third party developers to create eFresh clients. VendTek accommodates this with the POS SDK and the Client API.
 
eFresh POS SDK
VendTek has a software development kit available for developers wishing to create POS applications. The SDK describes the security and protocols necessary to communicate with an eFresh server. In addition, portable C language source code implementing communication protocol and encryption routine can be provided.
