MS Office online (WOPI) Integration into Servicenow - integration

I am not sure whether the WOPI host can be placed on the ServiceNow and not sure whether the WOPI client can also be implemented inside the ServiceNow. I need some help in the architecting solution for integrating the WOPI into ServiceNow. Anyone has done this before please let me know the answers to the above queries, please. Thanks

I solved this in a different way. I used ServiceNow APIs directly in MS Word so that I can now checkout what file I want to and then make changes and check-in directly into servicenow

Onenote API for Local Computer

This is my first post on Stackoverflow - I am looking for guidance about OneNote API. I look forward to develop a solution primarily for "Own Usage" - which Creates, Opens and Closes OneNote Sections on my Local Machine - No cloud etc. is to be used. Please guide if it will be possible?
I hope it should be possible - Please guide how to proceed and what to study for that. My programming skills are very basic.
I will prefer to use OneNote 2007.
[Edit on 5th Nov. Noon IST] A few clarifications might help: I had initially gone through https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn575425.aspx however, I found that "The OneNote API runs on the Microsoft globally-available cloud, and sends data from your app into the user's OneDrive". Whereas in my case no other user or cloud is to be involved. I wish to "develop a solution primarily for "Own Usage" - which Creates, Opens and Closes OneNote Sections on my Local Machine". It seems that a link suggested by "Sebov1c" msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj680118.aspx and another suggested by "Jorge Aguirre" should serve my purpose. I will do my homework on this topic over the next week and get back here.
Thanks and Regards

Note that the OneNote REST API is for cloud based notebooks only, so I don't think that's an option for you.
If you want offline support on windows only, your other option is to use the OneNote interop C# libraries (from what you say, I think this is what you're looking for) There's a pretty good example here:
How To Write To A OneNote 2013 Page Using C# and The OneNote Interop
There's other options to write apps that are embedded in OneNote, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.
There is a COM API for OneNote. Check out a sample here: http://www.github.com/OneNoteDev/VanillaAddin

Open source requirements management tool

Hi i did my search but was not able to find a proper answer to my question. I am looking for a simle req. mgmt tool where I can assign unique ID s to each requirement and trace each ID to a test case. It is amazing that there are no solutions I can find out there. Excell and word does not cut it since I can not assign unique IDs and do traceability. I am hoping someone out there will have an answer.
Thank you all for your help.
I don't know if this convenient for you but I would suggest Trac. It is a nice open source tool whch you could setup in your own server. Please be aware that this is a general purpose issue management tool, and it is not adjusted to test cases management. It can also integrate with SVN and GIT source versioning tools. Trac is based on a ticket creation logic and on a wiki functionality. It also provides milestones, deadlines and other functionality related with the project management of a software project.
Hope I helped!
There is one that I'm using regularly to track requirement to code and requirement to test-case.
It's called reqflow and it's in Github:

Hope this help.

MS Access 2007 Visual display of events

I am currently working on a database that contains two tables: tblAuthor and tblBooks. I am looking for a way to generate a timline look with a strong visual emphasis. I do not know all the possible oulets for creating reports in Access and any advice (including give up this isn't possible) would be welcome. I am hoping to format it similarly to a Gantt chart.
If there is anyway of doing this, or if you have any other suggestions please let me know!!
I work for a company that develops Gantt chart controls. We still develop, maintain and support an ActiveX Edition, which seamlessly integrates into Access. Here is an overview of some key features of the general control:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxc4-R1Kn_4&feature=plcp
If these features do what you want your Gantt to do, then you can download a free trial version from our website. You then should also download the samples collection as this also will provide you with an example of how to directly embed the control into Access. However, make sure that you download the ActiveX version (you have to register first before downloading): http://www.netronic.com/gantt/gantt-software/free-gantt-chart.html
Hope this helps. If you have questions, please send an email to support#netronic.de, and mention the stackoverflow post from Martin. Good luck with your project :-)

BMC Remedy Integration

Where can I find a list of BMC Remedy 3rd party integrations? I have found nothing on their website, and their sales department put me in touch with the customer services which wouldn't take my call because I didn't have a customer number.
My company is looking into using BMC Remedy as a customer incident system, and it would be nice if I could integrate it with some software. For example, we could have an internal development tracking system such as Jira, Redmine, MantisBT, Trak, etc. which would integrate with Remedy. Or, have Rememdy itself integrate with something like Hudson or CruiseControl.
So far, I've found nothing that seems to integrate with Remedy -- even with software packages that have a ton of integrations like Hudson and Jira. I don't really care if there are third party proprietary integrations, but I'd like to make sure they already exist and not All you have to do is hire someone at $400 to program everything for you. I want to make sure that there is something now and not be promised it can be done, then find out you really can't do it.
I may be a bit late to the party here, but I wanted to make this info available for anybody who happened to be searching for this answer in the future. BMC Remedy has an API in Java, which uses a native library in C, as well as bindings for Perl and other languages capable of calling native code. If you can integrate with any of those languages, you can write a custom integration program and integrate with that. As 'Gary L' mentioned, Remedy can also expose any form as a web service, which, in my experience, have simple interfaces.
Since the original question was asked, BMC have created a doc with a wealth of information on their Wiki. A Swedish company, RRR, has also collected every version of the Remedy Java API and required native libraries on a single page. It appear that you no longer need a support ID to access these pages and download the API files.
Hopefully somebody finds this helpful!
Your definition of "integrate" is different from their version. Their version of integration means that if a source system exposes its data, then you can configure ARS to retrieve that information and map it to classes (forms) within their system. They have a "generic" integration system that you have to customize. It has three broad areas:
If you can connect directly to a 3rd party database and see its schema, then you can perform
retrievals of that information. We use Oracle today.
They have a java API that allows you access the ARS system for custom code (I do a lot of this).
Flat CSV file importation of data from a source system into ARS (after export).
I looked at their online support for the systems you mention (Jira, Redmine, MantisBT, Trak) and do not see anything that would accomplish any of the three above without your own customizations. With the work that I've done on this system it doesn't surprise me.
I work on a project today that writes custom code doing the items above. It is a system that is configuration/development heavy for us. Your comment: "All you have to do is hire someone at $400 to program everything for you." is not too far off from what we have to do with the system.
There is another option for Remedy integration: Web Services.
BMC Remedy makes it easy to create web services (WSDL). It creates the SOAP and XML for you. When you buy Remedy Incident Management module, it includes out-of-the-box web services that will allow it to consume and/or publish web services which make it easy to integrate with other systems on the intranet or externally. There are BMC publications which provide details on ITSM integration --- but again you will need a customer/support ID to get it from BMC's website.
Yes and no to the Web Services integration. The Version 8 system I was working on had some web services available, and they were incomplete. So I was able to do a number of functions (mostly read-only), specifically for custom display and Change Request checking, and submission of a Change Request and a Work Order. But many functions had no web service, and I ended up brute-forcing through the web user interface (with a customized browser control) to change dates on tasks, or make tasks. Ugly, but effective. There are mid-tier JavaScript calls that can be used, if you know the secret function name and can deal with the dynamic naming convention in play. For Remedy users who are desperate for some integration, there are ways it can be done.
few OOTB integrations are possible with BMC Products but if you want to do it with other you have to write webservices(REST or SOAP)
Companies like IBM or cisco has made connectors for integration with Remedy.
Just adding more detail here:
I also do a ton of direct SQL for remedy integration.
If you're careful and know what you're doing, you can have a stored proc create legal/valid records in a remedy table. (If you do it wrong, the records won't load in the client and in older versions of the windows client can actually crash the client software.)

Is there a working Cocoa MySQL Xcode project?

Or has this been abandoned? I can't seem to find a modern sample project. I haven't been able to make any the old code I find work. I just want to write a simple Mac app that accesses an external MySQL database that's also involved in a PHP website.
The old CocoaMySQL project has been abandoned, but the project has been resurrected as Sequel Pro.
It's open source and you can get the source code here.
If you want a straight library that allows you to access MySQL, you might try the commercial MacSQL framework.
You can also just use the MySQL C API directly, however be careful because if you want to use this in a commercial app the licensing fees are high.
You might find it easier to write some PHP code on the server to deliver the results to your client using JSON or some other lightweight data interchange format. PHP has direct support for JSON and there is a great Cocoa framework that makes it easy to parse and generate JSON code.
This method allows you to completely abstract the database connection from your client, so it is relatively trivial to change the database if necessary in future.
Thanks, Rob, I have actually seen the links to Sequel Pro but I was confused when I got there. Part of my problem is that I am really bad at adding things to an Xcode project. Once I have a project in hand with the correct libraries and whatever all linked up, I can make use of the various methods or functions.
That's why I was asking if someone had a super simple project using MySQL that would hopefully compile for me right out of the box. I can then add all my objects and coding.
Can't seem to find anyone out there willing to hold the hand of us project-challenged. The project settings dialog box and codes that go in various boxes therein are very confusing to me.
