OpenVPN AS API

Post by n3zzd0g » Tue Apr 30, 2013 5:23 pm

I was curious to know the roadmap of the iOS / Android clients. Right now, it seems like there's a OpenVPN AS API within the doucments folder of OpenVPN AS installation. The Android client doesn't seem to use this API, and iOS client opens a web-page to import the client configuration. Is the future of the mobile clients to implement some sort of properitary XMLRPC API, or switch to use this OpenVPN AS API. If not implementing the OpenVPN AS API, will the existing API be published one day?

Best Regards!

The Android client does use the OpenVPN AS XML-RPC API if you go to Menu -> Import -> Import Access Server profile.

The iOS client doesn't use the API at the moment since it was judged to be simpler to use the web for import.

No plans at the moment to change existing APIs, though we would like to move towards REST in the future because of its simplicity.

Hello James,
Could you provide us with a link where we could find the documentation for the present OPENVPN Apis?
