Accellion APIs

Accellion offers APIs that allow access and utilization of the Accellion Secure File Transfer Solution.  Accellion APIs provide an easy to use interface to access the underlying backend and are accessible over SSL in any web-aware programming language from any platform. 



The Accellion APIs offer secure file transfer (storage and retrieval) file management (delete, list and replication) and the ability to send secure links in emails.  This is achieved via the following Accellion API calls:

  • PUT - uploads a file to the user’s Accellion account

  • SEND – sends an email containing download links of specified files to one or more recipients

  • FIND - performs any of the three file operations – list, replicate or delete

  • LOGIN– logs into a user’s Accellion account and gets authentication tokens for subsequent put, find, send API calls for that account
