EmpowerID is an extendable Identity and Access Management (IAM), Single Sign-On and workflow development platform that uses thousands of workflow operations with real-time access checks to give organizations the security tools needed to control who can do what, where and when with their resources. Through its Web API, you the developer, can access and extend these features in your own applications. The API is built on the principles of REST and is organized around the components (resource objects, like user accounts, EmpowerID people, Exchange mailboxes, workflows, etc.,) of the EmpowerID platform.
