Change Package — changepackage

To use the XML API to perform the changepackage function from within your custom script:

• Append the /xml-api/changepackage function call name, plus the required variables (see below), to a URL which includes the address of your server.

• For example, on a server whose hostname is example.com, you would include the following string in your script: https://example.com:2087/xml-api/changepackage

• You need to be logged in with the proper permissions in order to call a function. See our document about Authenticating API Function Calls for more information about authenticating APIs from within a script.

• You can also perform the function by entering the string in your web browser's address bar. This may be useful for testing the function call and viewing its output.
