API for Insight Manager

I'm creating a web-based application to integrate several applications into a dashboard. Does anyone know if there is an API available for use with Systems Insight Manager?

What exactly are you trying to do?

I'm trying to integrate several different applications (Systems Insight Manager being one of them) into a portal site. We have SharePoint Portal Server installed and will be creating web parts for each application. So basically this web part would need to make calls to SIM.

I've been reading the forum and see that there is a Java API, but would it be at all possible for a .NET application to make calls to the API through some sort of interface?

Your best bet would be to open the database read only and gather the data you want to display from there.
