THIRD PARTY APPLICATION COMMUNICATION API

Abstract:

A device for a website building system (WBS) includes a communication hub embedded in a page of a website built by the WBS to implement 2-way cross domain communication with direct addressing between at least two third party applications from different vendors, the at least two third party applications each having an instance within the page. The communication hub includes a smart identifier and addresser to identify and provide the direct addressing of source or target third party applications between the at least two third party applications and to maintain a table of all absolute addresses for the 2-way cross domain communication; and a communication policy enforcer to enforce a communication policy between the WBS and the at least two third party applications to filter non-conforming communication according to the communication policy; and a protocol translator to provide 2-way interface translation between the at least two third party applications.
