I apologize; I thought I recognized this program name, and I responded
tongue-in-cheek without checking (I don't find it either at V5R3). I hoped
to draw out the real question from the OP.

First, I can't find documentation for this, nor any reference on the
Internet other than your post and Dennis' reply - did you misspell it?
You have it different in the subject than in the body.

An API is a program or procedure (in a service program). Calling it from
something like Navigator seems will have problems, first of all with
parameters. I have to believe that the call will be treated like it is
in a SBMJOB or on a command line. In that case, numbers will be treated
as packed 15 with 5 decimal places and character parameters longer than
32 characters will be totally unpredictable if you don't pad with blanks
to the end plus a dummy character. If a parameter is an integer (binary)
you can use hex notation for it - the value 15 in a long int would be
X'0000000F' for example.

Does this program return any data? Or does it simply do something? Is it
a documented API? I think we need more information.
