Self provisioning - retailers only
This page is a reference manual for the API to be used for developing a custom solution of automatic account provisioning. MailUp APS is built on top of this API and it should be your first option for account provisioning. As for the MailUp APS, the access to this API is not "self-service", you should first contact us to ask for enabling your application for account provisioning and to agree on setup details.

- AccessToken contains an empty ExternalUserId
- AccessToken contains an ExternalUserId that hasn't got the right scope to perform the required operation.

- La chiamata ritorna -1 se il metodo GetAccountStatus dei servizi ADM ritorna come ReturnCode 1 (Processing) o 2 (Error). Tale descrizione del ReturnCode viene settata come description in modo che si possa capire il motivo del fallimento. In realtà ReturnCode, in questo caso, varrà 0 (Ok) oppure 2 (Error) e MAI 1 (Processing).
- La proprietà ActivePacks restituisce informazioni relative allo stato attuale dei pacchetti. Il campo Quantity restituisce la somma algebrica dei pacchetti aggiunti/rimossi, mentre CurrentQuantity fornisce informazioni relative a quanti pacchetti sono attualmente in uso (un pacchetto potrebbe essere stato rimosso, ma l'effettiva rimozione avverrà a fine mese)
