Contact Sources

Overview

Acrobits apps can load and display contacts from different sources. The obvious source is phone address book, another option is CardDAV server and it is also possible to download contacts from a URL or web service.

The web service should ideally return contacts in our native JSON format, which the app would simply save without any processing. There may be cases though when the contacts are already available in some other format (typically an XML document). We have support for transformations which can turn the XML format into our internal format.

Please refer to Web Service Contacts for detailed information.
