Re: How to call methods in PHP

I had the same issue back in 2013, and I got around it using curl:

Re: MethodAPI response = "The field Vendor_RecordID does not support edit." Why not?

OK, so with your explanation and some testing, I see that we can post the name without the ID, and have the ID autocorrect to the matched name. Awesome! That resolves the issue for us.

Here is the structure:

Vendor Table

Record_ID

Vendor Name

Event Table

Record_ID

Event Name

Role Table

Record_ID

Role Name

Assignment Table

Event Record_ID (Link)

Record_ID

Role Record_ID (Link)

Role Name (Link)

Vendor Record_ID (Link)

Vendor (Link)

Details

Arrival Time

Departure Time

During the operational process when the event is initially set up, the roles are defined in the Assignment Table but the vendor information is left blank. Later we want to populate the vendor information from our web site. This is where we are trying to Insert against the vendor linked fields and getting our error.

Hi Paul!

Thanks for the response. Maybe we're going about this the wrong way; if so, perhaps you could provide some guidance:

I have a table which stores event roles, and we need to be able to add or delete vendors to rows in that table via the API. They're currently connected as linked fields:

Vendor

Vendor_RecordID

They start off null, but we assign them via a dropdown in the method interface. We are capable of adding and clearing them there. I need to be able to do the same via the API. Can you advise how we would do that?

Hey guys, any word on this? Phone support said to post here, but I'm not getting any feedback.

MethodAPI response = "The field Vendor_RecordID does not support edit." Why not?

ImTheirWebGuy — Mon, 28 Apr 2014 20:23:50 GMT

We talked to support and they said to post here with the relevant bits, so here goes:

I'm testing calls to the API to update a record using MethodAPIUpdate V2. This is the request (anonymized):

     account  login  password    NovaEventsVendors    Vendor Vendor_RecordID     Unassigned 5501   1042

This is what comes back:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?><MethodAPI response = "The field Vendor_RecordID does not support edit." ></MethodAPI>

There's nothing I can see to adjust whether or not a field is editable, so why are we getting this error?

Also:

- How do I paste code into this forum? I used the pre tags on that bit above, but it looks like it's just rendering them.

- Where did the API documentation go? I can no longer find the links in the new site setup.

Thanks!

Hey Tate, I know it's probably too late, but I found I had a fair few issues with getting Method to work at first using PHP and the Method API. I've had a bit of success now, but here's the basics for cURL:
