Overview: CCM API Concepts

The CCM API is a web service and client toolkit for accessing ActivID CMS functionality. The client is provided as both Java and C++ APIs.

You must install the client on the workstation that remotely accesses ActivID CMS services.

The CCM API Client can use the standard smart card interface, Basic Standard Interface (BSI) Client API, available in ActivClient, to communicate (synchronize) with smart cards during any issuance or post-issuance operations. Optionally, CCM API also supports PKCS#11-compliant middleware or Microsoft Virtual Smart Cards. For help on the second option, contact HID Global.
