Calling REST API via MS Access / VBA

I have an MS Access application that is hosted on a Remote Server.  One of the features I need to add is the ability to dial phone numbers and have looked at several solutions (as some of you know).  One of the solutions seems ideal as it will dial the required number and then call the users desk-phone (a common practice).  The service provider has a RESET API toolkit available, which looks ideal - but sadly, I have never worked with REST.  

So my question is this.  Will I be able to make a REST API call via VBA/Access as well as pull in the results  (connection time, engaged etc).
