[AccessD] Calling API's from VBA

[Stuart McLachlan]

There are several ways to do it.

Gustav posted a method of getting  data a few days ago using XMLHTTP

   https://github.com/GustavBrock/VBA.Random

The actual module code is at

https://github.com/GustavBrock/VBA.Random/blob/master/Random.bas

The relevant part of that code for your purposes is the function:

 Private Function RetrieveDataResponse( _
    ByVal ServiceUrl As String, _
    ByRef ResponseText As String) _
    As Boolean

A variation of that using
XmlHttp.Open "PUT", ServiceUrl, Async
instead of
XmlHttp.Open "GET", ServiceUrl, Async
should work the other way.
