SOAP portal_login

[mark.tallis]

I am developing an interface in c# to Sugar using the soap api. I am using the soap request portal_login. For every login attempt I get the following error:

Invalid Portal Client: Portal Client does not have authorized access [error number 12]

I am using 5.0b and have set the contact’s portal settings. Below is the code I am using to access the soap request from c#

 
user_auth user = new user_auth();
user.user_name = username;
user.password = this.computeMD5String(Password);
user.version = ".01";
set_entry_result authentication_result = this.sugarClient.portal_login(user, username, "test");

Is there anything else I need to do in sugar for the contact to get access via the portal_login request? I have set the username, password and made the portal active. The Customer Self-Service Portal in system settings is also active.

I have tested this using the SOAP request login, and this work seamlessly when using a user account from sugar. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Not to worry I found where my problem was. Not only do you need a valid portal user and the contact has to have a portal name, password and made active, it helps if you set the License Management > Number of Portal Users to greater than 0.

Hi Mubi

Portal Users are allowed in the Licensed versions and you need to define how many users will be available in the portal.
Go to Admin -> License Management and Update the Portal Users.
