# Migration Guide from SOAP to REST or JSON With FactFinder NG, the SOAP/Webservice API is no longer supported. To facilitate the switch from SOAP, here is a list of existing SOAP methods and their replacements in the REST and JSON APIs. You can generate a client using the Swagger documentation for the REST API or the JSON Schema definitions. | SOAP Method | REST-API (http-method URL) | JSON-API | | ------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | Campaign.getProductCampaigns(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/campaign/{channel}/product | ../ProductCampaign.ff?do=getProductCampaigns\&format=json&.. | | Campaign.getShoppingCartCampaigns(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/campaign/{channel}/shoppingcart | ../ProductCampaign.ff?do=getShoppingCartCampaigns\&format=json&.. | | Campaign.getPageCampaigns(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/campaign/{channel}/page | ../ProductCampaign.ff?do=getPageCampaigns\&format=json&.. | | ChannelManagement.createChannel(...) | We have no record of these methods being used, so they can be deleted without replacement. If you are actually using any of them, please contact Support to coordinate further steps. These acions can, generally, be performed via the user interface. | | | ChannelManagement.applyLocaleDefaults(...) | | | | ChannelManagement.applyInitTemplate(...) | | | | ChannelManagement.deleteChannel(...) | | | | ChannelManagement.getAllChannels(...) | | | | Import.deleteRecord(...) | DELETE ../rest/{apiversion}/records/{channel}?recordId=x | ../Delete.ff | | Import.deleteRecords(...) | DELETE ../rest/{apiversion}/records/{channel}?recordId=x\&recordId=y | Sadly, there is no JSON-API replacement for this method. | | Import.insertRecord(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/records/{channel} | ../Insert.ff | | Import.insertRecords(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/records/{channel} | Sadly, there is no JSON-API replacement for this method. | | Import.downloadProductExport(...) | We have no record of this method being used, so they can be deleted without replacement. If you are actually using it, please contact Support to coordinate further steps. These acions can, generally, be performed via the user interface. | | | Import.startImport(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/import/search?channel=de | ../Import.ff?format=json\&channel=A | | Import.startImports(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/import/search?channel=de\&channel=at | Sadly, there is no JSON-API replacement for this method. | | Import.startSuggestImport(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/import/suggest?channel=de | ../Import.ff?format=json\&type=suggest\&channel=A | | Import.updateRecord(...) | PUT ../rest/{apiversion}/records/{channel} | ../Update.ff | | Import.getErrors(...) | Error messages during import are part of the respective return. Additionally, you can receive import errors per mail at set intervals or review them via the interface, so there is no replacement for this method. If you are actually using it, please contact Support to coordinate further steps. These acions can, generally, be performed via the user interface. | | | ProductComparison.compareRecords(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/compareproducts/{channel} | ../Compare.ff?format=json&.. | | Recommender.importData(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/import/recommendation?channel=de | ../Recommender.ff?do=importData\&format=json&.. | | Recommender.getRecommendation(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/recommendation/{channel} | ../Recommender.ff?do=getRecommendation\&format=json&.. | | Search.getSuggestions(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/suggest/{channel} | ../Suggest.ff?format=json&.. | | SimilarProducts.getSimilarProducts(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/similarproducts/{channel} | ../SimilarRecords.ff?format=json&.. | | TagCloud.getTagCloudEntries(...) | GET ../rest/{apiversion}/tagcloud/{channel} | ../TagCloud.ff?do=getTagCloud\&format=json&.. | | Tracking.logInformation(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/track/{channel}/{\[cart, checkout, click, feedback, log, login, recommendationClick]} | ../Tracking.ff?.. | | Tracking.logMultipleInformation(...) | POST ../rest/{apiversion}/track/{channel}/{\[cart, checkout, click, feedback, log, login, recommendationClick]} | ../Tracking.ff?.. | | UserManagement.createGroup(...) | We have no record of these methods being used, so they can be deleted without replacement. If you are actually using any of them, please contact Support to coordinate further steps. These acions can, generally, be performed via the user interface. | | | UserManagement.deleteGroup(...) | | | | UserManagement.deleteUser(...) | | | | UserManagement.getAllUsers(...) | | | | UserManagement.getAllGroups(...) | | | | UserManagement.getAllRoles(...) | | | | UserManagement.getGroup(...) | | | | UserManagement.getUser(...) | | | | UserManagement.isAdmin(...) | | | | UserManagement.updateGroup(...) | | | | UserManagement.updateUser(...) | | | | UserManagement.createUser(...) | | | --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.fact-finder.com/integration/generic-integration-topics/migration-guide-from-soap-to-rest-or-json.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
