Limitations, Terms, Legalese, etc.

Applications built using the Approver.com Web Services API must conform to the Approver.com Terms of Service, must be for non-commercial use, and must not exceed our API rate limit of 1,000 API calls per IP address per day. In addition, there are limitations on how often you can make each individual call (see the documentation for each call for specifics).

Check out the Approver.com Desktop Alert Widget

The Approver.com Desktop Alert Widget is an excellent example of an Approver Web Services API client for a couple of reasons. First, it's written in Javascript, which should at least be decipherable by lots of types of developers. Second, the widget's source code is available for you to pick apart and learn from.
