Kerio Control

With the Kerio Control Administration API, you can programmatically access your Kerio Control server, integrate it with third-party solutions and write simple scripts to handle advanced administration tasks.

Connect over HTTPS, send a request in a well-known human-readable format (JSON) and receive a response in the same format.

Scope

The administration API provides all actions that are available in the Kerio Control administration (our internal Kerio Control web administration uses the same API).

As an example, you can list Traffic Rules, add new Rules, edit HTTP Filters, read Logs, setup Bandwidth Management and much more with this sophisticated API.

Out of Scope

The following features are not part of this API:

• Kerio Control StaR Reports
• Kerio Control StaR statistics
• Kerio Control StaR client
• Kerio Control StaR Web Filter
• Settings or configuration which is not available in the web administration. The only way is to set the appropriate configuration file.

Kerio Operator

Kerio Operator is based on Asterisk and is configured completely through an easy-to-use web browser interface.

Even better, you can remotely monitor the Kerio Operator server via SNMP to retrieve information about server utilization and performance, thus having a comprehensive live overview of the phone system status.

For increased productivity, Kerio Operator can be integrated with CRM systems using AMI (Asterisk Manager Interface). Thus, the CRM system can identify the caller based on phone number and display existing information stored in the system. It allows initiating calls directly from the CRM system or a desktop dialer, updating call notes, monitoring call statuses or viewing call history.

Kerio and Open Source

Open source development is a key part of Kerio's software strategy. You may notice a number of third-party software components in our products. By using open source, we are constantly evolving our development techniques, and discovering new code which may later appear in our products. The open source community shares with Kerio, and in return we are able ot help it grow.

API and SDK

We believe that openness really matters! Beginning with supporting a number of platforms and protocols, and allowing you to run them with various clients, devices and third-party applications, or by API and SDK end.

Participation

Kerio actively participates in a number of open source projects, including Asterisk, Bugzilla, CMake, NetFilter for Windows, PHP, Suricata.

Join us at GitHub

In addition to our open source activities we have opened an account at Github, a well-known social coding platform. You can find us under Github.com/Kerio. Join us, fork us or simply use us. Additionally, you can download the SDK from Github.com/Kerio, and follow the instructions there. Use C or C++ to write your plugin, i.e. the code that actually calls the antivirus to scan files. You may distribute your plugin without any royalties.

Antivirus SDK for Kerio Products

The SDK includes a public API that can be used to write plugins for third-party antivirus solutions, together with sample plugin source code, ClamAV® plugin source code, and testing binaries. Linux is the supported platform, both for development and as the deployment target.

If you want to start using the plugin now and skip compilation, we have prepared the Linux plugin in binary form directly for download. Do not worry if you use Windows. Our community took care of it and created the necessary DLL file.

Feedback

Visit our Kerio forums for help and answers to your questions. Community contributions to the provided code are welcome, please use GitHub facilities to upload your changes for review.

Documentation

The Kerio API is built on solid foundations of JSON-RPC, whose advantages include easy-of-use code readability and wide support among different programming languages and publicly available libraries. For full JSON-RPC 2.0 specifications, click here.

Kerio Connect

Our Web Administration for Kerio Connect uses the same API that is now available to you. With the new Administration API for Kerio Connect, you can access your Kerio Connect server, integrate it with third-party solutions, or write simple scripts to handle advanced administration tasks. Currently, only the Administration API for Kerio Connect is available. Other APIs to manage calendars or user data are not supported. You can use IMAP/CalDAV/CardDAV protocols instead.

The API is designed to be accessible for any programming language. Connect over HTTPS, send a request in a well-known human-readable format (JSON) and receive a response in the same format.

Programming Libraries

You can also use the Kerio APIs Client Library for PHP for easy integration into your scripts and applications.
