1. An application programming interface that facilitates industrial automation solutions, comprising:
- an interface component that graphically represents at least one of;
at least one industrial automation service, or at least one design element; and
a design tool that provides for users to at least one of develop or modify at least one industrial automation service, by at least one of;
associating, or disassociating graphical representations of at least one of;
at least one industrial automation service, or at least one design element.

Abstract
The innovation relates to a system and/or methodology for the creation and management of industrial automation services and design templates. In addition, it allows for users to view processes, applications, protocols, data types, and so forth as semantically intuitive graphical objects that can be dragged, dropped, and tagged to allow for combining functionalities and/or integrating disparate applications or systems through a services model. Additionally, the innovation provides a library for user management of the services and templates.

42. A system facilitating creation and management of industrial automation services and design templates, comprising:
-
means for collecting a set of user data, wherein the data includes at least one of a set of user requirements, a functional specification, a Piping and Instrumentation drawing (P&
ID drawing), an electrical drawing, a design template, an operation, or a manufacturing execution system (MES);means for representing at least one of;
at least one industrial automation service, or at least one design element graphically, wherein the industrial automation services include at least one of design specifications, drawings, software code, testing schemas, bills of materials (B.O.M), installation specifications, manufacturing execution systems (MES), or enterprise resource planning (ERP); andmeans for generating at least one of;
at least one industrial automation service, or at least one design template based at least in part on at least one of the user data, or manipulation of the graphical representations of at least one of;
at least one industrial automation service, or at least one design elements.
