API Usage Example

Given that the API is REST based, you can access the API directly via your web browser to test it.  Obviously for actual integration works, you will need to make a web request to the given REST URL and then parse the response.

Below is a simple PUT example which updates an existing User, using XML format.

<User>
    <CompanyId>0</CompanyId>
    <Email>String</Email>
    <ExternalId>String</ExternalId>
    <FirstName>String</FirstName>
