Thread: Is there a Live API to include in my own application?

Is there a Live API to include in my own application?

Hi,

Newbie question, I think. I am interested in using Live Messenger's
API. I would like people to be able to subscribe to my MSN Live
userid, and when they send a message to it, they should get a response
of a certain kind (automatically, but after I run their message from a
Perl script).

This is for a tech support gadget that we intend to put
on our site for ticketing -- if their message contains "Urgent" (or
our code for it) then the response should be different, and so forth.

I'd appreciate any pointers. Many thanks in advance!

LB

Hi,

That's for the activity API, that won't do anything.
