We published our API Specifications for the Fax Plug-in as a future and current reference.
After downloading the Fax Plug-in using our Components Manager a sample solution {servoy_root}/solutions/it2be-examples/it2be-fax.servoy is installed.
You can import the sample solution into Servoy Developer and you will have some (basic) code examples of how to use the Fax Plug-in.
We have made the source of the Fax Plug-in available on ServoForge .
You can download the source here .
Everybody is free to check the source out, use it and change it as long as you give us credit and leave all copyright notices intact including those of third parties.
Open the Servoy Administration Website (e.g. localhost:8080/servoy-admin/ for a default Servoy Developer installation). Move to ‘Servoy Server Home’ -> ‘Smart Client Settings’ and add it2be.FaxService to ‘servoy.application_server.trustedRemotePlugins’ (you can use a comma as separator).
This should allow the Component to work.
IMPORTANT
The Fax Plugin is built upon the Intefax API and supports the Interfax Fax Services. The Interfax services are not free! You can subscribe to the Interfax services through the Interfax website .
