Sitefinity JS SDK uses the sitefinity object as an entry point for its functions. 
The constructor of the sitefinity object takes a parameter options.

This parameter has properties, such as:

  • serviceUrl
  • siteId
  • handlers
    The handlers property offers a success and failure callback functions that are executed on each request that the current instance of the Sitefinity object handles. You can use these callback functions for error logging, performance logging, refreshing an authentication token, etc.

Following is an example of how to instantiate the sitefinity object:

JavaScript
var sitefinityUrl = "http://mysite.com";

var options = {
 serviceUrl: sitefinityUrl + "/api/default/",
 handlers: {
   failureCb: function () {
     console.log("Global error occured");
   },
   successCb: function () {
     console.log("Success executing request");
   }
 }
}

var sf = new Sitefinity(options);
