Creating Web Services

Prerequisites

Summary

This video shows how to create a simple web service to do a database lookup and respond with data. The Web Service accepts the name of a Job and returns all persons qualified to meet that job. The service performs a LIKE query based on the first name of all people in the system and is meant to be used with a AutoComplete Extender.
