I’m trying to use an “automation API” to Reuters Messaging, an instant messaging network used in the global financial services industry based on Microsoft Office Communicator and previously based on MSN Messenger. The early versions of Reuters Messaging were almost identical to MSN Messenger, except connecting to a different server.
The help files for the whole application (including the API) are at
https://customers.reuters.com/rph/rm7/sliver.aspx?topic=GettingStarted
I’m specifically trying to use the “Get User Presence” API to log status changes of specific contacts, in the same way that MsgPlus logs status changes in a text file. This particular function is documented at
https://customers.reuters.com/rph/rm7/content/sdk...rface_details.aspx
I’m not an experienced developer, but I have some basic Visual Basic knowledge (e.g. in Excel). Can anyone please point me in the right direction to write some simple code, perhaps in Excel, to log users’ changes in status?
