Getting started with Zimbra API

Question

I am wondering how I can go about using the Zimbra API. I have looked everywhere for an API, and I have found no good references/tutorials about it.

I have a web application that I have developed in Ruby on Rails that I would like to communicate to Zimbra in order to fetch the calendar items to put in my own Calendar interface from within my application.

Can I do this ? and where can I start ?

Zimbra provide the soap api to get the calender and you can sent that calender data to you application using the XmlRpc Request.

@AshokD : XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol which uses XML to encode its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism. – kapil nadiyapara Feb 22 '13 at 04:03

note that the copy on sourceforge seems to be rather out of date ... a current version is to be found in you zimbra installation unter /opt/zimbra/docs – Tobi Oetiker Aug 15 '10 at 05:39

There is a java version here which also has a WSDL file for Zimbra's admin api. You may be able to use this to generate a client for ROR.
