1. A system, comprising:
a computing terminal hosting a first application program and a second application program;
a first server hosting a rules engine;
a second server;
an Application Programming Interface (API); and
a switch programmed to send a request associated with a profile to the rules engine through the API after the switch receives the request from the first application program such that (i) the rules engine generates a response to the request where the response contains a field populated with a tokenized Uniform Resource Locator (URL) unique to the request, (ii) the rules engine sends the response through the API to the switch, and (iii) the switch sends the response to the first application program such that the tokenized URL is activatable at the first application program to be opened by the second application program without any other login credentials to the rules engine to cause the rules engine to retrieve a set of data specific to the request and enable the second server to serve a web page generated based on the set of data to the second application program such that the web page is displayed by the second application program, wherein the first application program is a pharmacy management program, wherein the second application program is a browser program, wherein the API converts the request between a National Council for Prescription Drug Programs (NCPDP) format and a structured format when the request is sent from the switch to the rules engine through the API and the response is sent from the rules engine to the switch through the API, wherein the API receives the request from the switch in the NCPDP format, wherein the rules engine receives the request from the API in the structured format, wherein the API receives the response from the rules engine in the structured format, wherein the switch receives the response from the API in the NCPDP format.
