Remote API Calls

[sreshtrams]

I would like to integrate my Web Site application with SugarCRM, so that I can retrieve, edit and save data /documents from my web application.
Is there API’s in SugarCRM application? If API is there, how I make a remote call to API’s and Pass parameters from my web application.

The Web Site application coding is done using HTML and PHP with MySQL as backend.

Check out the SOAP API on the wiki: http://www.sugarcrm.com/wiki

If your site is simple or, especially, if you haven't made it yet, you might try building it inside SugarCRM. This would give you access to the whole Sugar API without the hassles of SOAP. That is, you could create a file in the root of Sugar called site.php, which would function like index.php does for SugarCRM. Both soap.php and leadCapture.php give some clues as to how you might do this. You might also build in this way thinking of your site as a more generic Site module for SugarCRM, resolving the issues that arise in doing this (authentication and access control, for example).

For many SMBs, Mambo/Joomla is overkill, a pain to use and expensive to integrate and maintain with SugarCRM. It would be very handy to have a simple Site module running directly inside Sugar for this kind of customer.

I'd be happy to discuss building this for you.

Cheers.
