link action by program? What I am asking is, do you have RESTful server that I can link my account to my POC, just like link an OrgHandle to a PocHandle? I am asking url and payload for link a poc to my Arin Online Account?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> The reason I am asking is my clients call my webservice. And my webservices call your RESTful to create a PocHandle. All these processes run by computer. Also I have to give my clients an ability
to delete the POC they created. So I have to link the poc they created to an Arin Online Account by computer too, so they can delete anytime they want to<o:p></o:p></span></p>
