RootsTech 2012 Featured Presenter: Daniel Horowitz

Daniel Horowitz from MyHeritage.com is our next featured RootsTech presenter.

The Family Graph API by MyHeritage.com

This session is geared towards developers. It will be held Thursday, Feb 2 from 4:15 - 5:15 pm MST.

The Family Graph API provides simple, powerful and consistent access to core genealogy features and data on MyHeritage.com allowing developers to create applications using our data set, presenting a simple, consistent view of the MyHeritage dataset, uniformly representing objects in the graph including users, sites, tree, individuals, photos, sources and the connections between them including site memberships, family relationships, photo tags and so on.

Based on MyHeritage.com’s massive reach of 61 million users, 21 million family trees, 885 million profiles in 38 languages, the API allows other websites, partners, and applications to interface with MyHeritage.com and take advantage of family relations.

For more information on this topic, see Daniel's syllabus.
