====== Open Online Interface ====== {{ch.gif|}} This module exports data from Pcc for display on your website. ===== Open Online Tournament Interface ===== The so-called Open Online Interface is a separate Pcc module that generates tournament lists in XML format and makes them available for further processing. This function is used when lists are to be integrated into an external homepage or an info screen. If the module is licensed, the button **//Parameter.//** {{de:openonlineinterface:parameter.png|}} The settings for the future XML export are now installed here: {{de:openonlineinterface:open_online_7.png|}} - Enter the path to where the file is to be exported. It is recommended to use the FTP folder in the Pcc main directory. - Name of the export file - can also be slightly different but always the same (e.g. T-.XML). - The function for automatic updating with the Internet starts the export as soon as the connection to the intranet is established. The existing file is overwritten with the current one if there have been any changes. - Immediate intranet transfer is the actual interface for Startzeit.com customers and updates the display immediately on the provider's homepage.

As soon as this has been added by one of us, the menu item //**Persons**// the corresponding submenu **//FTP export.//** The basic settings for the FTP upload of a *.txt file to a web server (for example) are made in the following dialogue: {{de:openonlineinterface:ftp_personenexport_2.png|}} - Which group of people should be exported? - At what times should the export start, or should the process be started automatically with the automatic night function? - Names of the export files - Here again, as with the Open Online Interface, the **//FTP configuration//** is entered here. In addition, by ticking the box next to **//Start synchronisation on this computer//**to define which computer should perform this task. With **//Start now//** (F3), the export can also be started manually at any time.
