function createNewContact

[alexm]

Any idea whether this function will work (from \www\mambo\components\com_sugarregistration\sugari nc\sugarcontact.php)?

I would like to have the mambo registration create (at the moment of confirmation/activation) a contact or lead in SugarCRM.
Has anyone modified the code to accomplish this?

Thank you!

Alex M.

Hello Alex,

If you view your Sugar installation's soap.php file directly in your browser (i.e. http://demo.sugarondemand.com/sugarcrm/soap.php), you'll find a list of functions that are part of our SOAP API.

Check out create_contact() and create_lead(), specifically.

That's surprisingly useful documentation, not least because it highlights that the only fields in the create_contact() API are name and email address (oh and owning user), which is ahem limited somewhat. Fortunately, it's dead easy to extend...
