This programmers guide provides you with the information needed to interact with the Service Provider Foundation (SPF) service. As topics are added to the TechNet Wiki, this page will grow with links to those topics. This topic will act as a hub of SPF information.

If you are wondering about how SPF works, it uses the OData (version 3) protocol. The Beginning Service Provider Foundation Development curated content view will provide you with a list of articles that define what OData is, and how it is implemented by SPF.
