- manually, by executing actions in the HTML interface of the FCR API, which is accessible via Web browsers at the following permanent URL: https://api.fcr.frogans/; or
- automatically, via custom programs written by developers in the usual programming languages, e.g., PHP, Java, C#, VB, and Node.js.
2. The addressing services provided by the FCR Operator are accessible to any individual or organization that wishes to provide registration-management services for Frogans addresses and for Frogans networks in the FCR to holders of Frogans addresses and of Frogans networks, by becoming an FCR account administrator.

3. Whether they use the FCR API manually or automatically, FCR account administrators undertake to read and respect the instructions associated with each section, process and action, as described in the HTML interface of the FCR API. During the priority registration period for entrepreneurs, only some of the sections, processes and actions of the FCR API are available.
4. The information provided in the HTML interface of the FCR API is extracted from the FCR-MSI (FCR Multi-Stakeholder Interface) technical specification drawn up by the OP3FT. Therefore this information is subject to the terms of use which apply to the information and documents presented on the official Web site of the Frogans technology (www.frogans.org) published by the OP3FT.
