RenderThumbs Explorer
The Vision
2
RenderThumbs Explorer is a Meta API helper for creating any user interface which needs to
provide the user with a graphical way to navigate or search the Vision
2
Archives on the system. Underneath
the hood it is making calls to the new Vision
2
API but this method makes creating user interfaces much easier
than calling the raw API directly.
The test page on the Vision
2
System at
http:/_v2server_name_/v2Services/v2_API/RenderTest.aspx
can be
used to interactively explore how the API works.
The way to use this API is to make the same call twice, the first time using RequestType=XML or
RequestType=JSON and then the second time using RequestType=JPEG. FIG. 1 displays an XML call.
FIG. 2 displays a JPEG call.
