New NuGet Packages

Hi developer community!

We’ve put together some treats for you:

Public My ID HUB API client has finally arrived. A lot of thinking and designing went into this piece of software. You can get it via NuGet package and start using today.
On top of that we want to publish our private library used to read MaxMind GeoIP databases. It is available via NuGet package as well. If you haven’t heard of MaxMind – please check them out. They got a few treats of their own for you as well.

We would love to hear from you. Please drop us a line with feedback if you like or don’t like the packages.

Windows Store and Windows Phone Apps Released

Today is a great day to be My ID HUB customer! We are pleased to announce release of two applications at the same time – Windows Store and Windows Phone!

These are preview releases thus their functionality is limited. They provide convenient read-only access to your data stored inside My ID HUB service from your tablet or phone running Microsoft software. They do not support modification of data yet but rest assured this is a temporary inconvenience.

Here are some of the screenshots from Windows Store app:

Windows Phone application is available here.

New Icons Are Under Way

In the spirit of constant improvement we strive to make My ID HUB interface look appealing. We’ve revamped entire set of icons and are putting final touches to make sure everything fits together naturally. Here are some of our favorite icons:

Hope you are as excited about this refresh as we are!

We’ve added service telemetry

In the last few weeks we’ve been working to gain insights into technical aspects of My ID HUB services operation. We have instrumented the web site to measure responsiveness and reliability. This is huge step towards continuous improvement based on real user telemetry. No internal lab testing can provide as much information as our customers who use this service every day. Thank you for using this service and in return we promise to keep pushing the quality up.

Improved Sign-Up Experience

Last week we’ve been busy streamlining user registration experience with My ID HUB service. We identified an opportunity to reduce number of steps by combining user agreement page with sign up page. Now it takes one button click to start using the service.

Among other things, we’ve clean-up our API in preparation for public documentation. So all you developers out there – get ready! In coming days we will open and document our REST web services for you to consume and build great and secure apps. Sneak-peek is available here:

UPDATE as of 7/5/2015

Services listed below have been removed:

~~https://myidhub.com/Public/Services/Application.svc~~

~~https://myidhub.com/Secure/Services/Session.svc~~

New service end-point was brought up instead:

https://api.myidhub.com/

New end-point talks RESTful protocol is much simpler than legacy SOAP end-point. It comes with a client available via NuGet for folks building applications for My ID HUB service.

Hello World!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is packed with features and the best part they are all FREE. There will be more information shared in coming days and weeks as the service continues to evolve and grow.
