SugarCRM RPC access?

[forsberg]

Hi!

Being completely new to SugarCRM, I'm currently playing around with a test instance. Very impressing!

I'd like to know if there is some kind of external API for creating objects in Sugar, for example for adding new contacts. Something like XMLRPC would be optimal, but a commandline interface would do as well.

Is there such a thing? Preferrably in the OSS version :-).

Hi,

yes there is an external "API", the sugarcrm-Webservice.

You find this under http://yourserver/sugarcrm/soap.php

I think, it works good for standard-task. But it is very slow and have restrictions with user-defined moduls, specially with user-defined relationships between moduls.

Here u find a website with a documentation of the webservice (a bit more detailed, but only version 3.5.1)

Hope, this helps you.
