Introduction
InfiniCLOUD is a cloud storage service that uses the open WebDAV protocol. Each user has their own data space, and transmission and reception are secured via HTTPS.
InfiniCLOUD can easily connect to WebDAV-enabled applications.
The InfiniCLOUD icon can be downloaded for free from the download page, allowing application developers to indicate correspondence using icons and names after each company has completed their own operation test at InfiniCLOUD.
Because each user's WebDAV connection destination URL is different, each user must set their own connection destination URL in the "My Page" tab to connect to InfiniCLOUD from their preferred application. A connection destination with an ID and password must be established.
In the perspective of developers who believe this is inconvenient to the user, or will not promote the use of the application. it is possible to get the user's connected URL with JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) by calling the user's REST-API. This will allow the user entering the ID and password to complete the setup. During this time, it is also possible to give InfiniCLOUD bonus capacity to users using the application.
InfiniCLOUD has resources that can not be covered with the WebDAV protocol, making it necessary to use the dedicated REST API of InfiniCLOUD in order to access it.
This resource is as follows.
- Authentication information
- Data set (file system and snapshot)
- Get file meta information
- Other
With the use of these APIs, the application can not only take file transfers, but in addition, can take snapshots, divide areas, and create areas that users were unable to see previously.
This document discusses these terms in detail.
