Hi!

I want to use Robohelps API to integrate and use it in my web application which is written in asp.net.

Have googled a lot and the only thing I find is that information should be found in the installation map.

Isn't there any other help you can get??

I appreciate answers

Please describe in a little bit more detail about what you want to do. Usually, one would create the content in RoboHelp, publish it to responsive HTML5 and then embed the published output in an app, so there is no need for API related development.

Thank you for your answer!

I have a complete web application that does not have any help system other than manuals, making these manuals and guidelines interactive and searchable in my application is what I want to do. Have found some information in this document, in the part 'Information for developers': "https://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/2019/robohtml/robohelp_classic_2019_help.pdf#page=373&zoom=100,0,693 "

I understand what you mean with publishing the RoboHelp project, I want to know exactly in details how I can "embed the published output in my app", just as you said.

Am I looking at the right place in the document? I will try to follow the steps and see what happens.

Yes, that's the right place in the document. Basically, what you could do is create a browser control in your app (in-app browser) and then load the published help into this browser control (handover the URL of your help).
