Integrating with e-Box

A set of tools that helps with integration with https://www.eboxenterprise.be site.

The diagram below shows the high-level technical view of the federated model of the e-Box Enterprise. The federated view indeed integrates several message sources (DocProviders), each accessible via a MessageRegistry (web service REST) respecting the same contract. In addition, some institutions (DocSenders) can continue to publish their messages to a DocProvider who will make them available for the federated e-Box. Finally, a company (DocConsumer) can directly retrieve the content of its e-Box via a technical integration with each MessageRegistry offering this type of access.
