Web Framework for Automation Triggers

As we move on and get better at understanding the coding techniques and Python, the next step is to ensure that scripts are executed without the end users actually running the code locally, and ensure a platform or OS independent approach in code execution. This chapter focuses on putting our scripts on a web platform. We will cover the following topics:

  • Creating a web accessible script with examples
  • Accessing the script from HTML/dynamic HTML
  • Understanding and configuring the environment for the web framework using IIS
  • The basics of APIs and creating a sample API using C#
  • Using the API in Python
  • Creating a task to understand the full end-to-end functionality of a web framework
