What is a capability of the AXL API?

The AXL (Administrative XML) API is a SOAP-based API used by Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) to allow third-party applications to perform administrative tasks. One of the key capabilities of the AXL API is that it allows users to execute SQL commands within CUCM. This capability can be used to query and modify the CUCM database, enabling tasks such as retrieving information about users, devices, and configurations, or making updates to the CUCM system.
