Introduction vMedia Third-party Integration

Overview

NOTE: Depending on how you originally set up vMedia, it might be located in the root of vMedia rather than in the root of IMASTER. If this is the case, any references to the IMASTER folder should be referred to as vMedia.

The integration documentation is designed to help you to integrate vMedia with your application. The examples application used in this section refers to Collection-Master; however, the basic principles of integrating a third-party application still apply. This subject is presented so you'll get an idea of how vMedia is used at most of law firms that currently use vMedia.
