Product information "UAC Utility: Web Service "
A Web service is a method of communication between two electronic devices over a network. This Universal Extension provides the capability to call endpoints of foreign APIs and is beneficial for Stonebranch SaaS customers, which are accessing the Universal Controller in the Stonebranch AWS Cloud and having their Universal Agents deployed in their data center. As the integration is triggered from the Universal Agent, no additional firewall port for the Universal Agent needs to be opened.Â
