Connecting to SharePoint through web services

SharePoint also includes a comprehensive set of web services that can also be used to interact with system configuration and content. The available services cover both the base SharePoint functionality covered in the SharePoint Foundation version as well as the extended functionality available in SharePoint Server.

The services come in two formats; SOAP based services and new WCF based services that support REST.
