   Nice, but your code here includes your token. I changed that line to
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $this->token);

   We are using a paid version of HiRise which means the class needed a couple of mods:-
   1. to ‘request()’ mod to read https (or better make a variable)
   2. to ‘curl_request()’ add ‘curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);’

   However I did note that using ‘http://…’, I got a message attempting to redirect to ‘https://…’ would be nice to capture that and call recersively (no need for a flag). I’ve been put on other work for now 8-(

   This is just what I needed for a personal project. How exactly should I credit you?

   I’m trying to use Simplehighrise for some API interaction and I’m having problems. I would like to get at the information like first-name and company-id but whenever I try to access it by entering $result->company-id or $result->first-name I’m getting a PHP error because of the format.

   Any idea how I can get at this data?

   @Chris,

   You can get at this information using XPath to navigate the XML structure documented on the HR dev site. Here’s an example that grabs a search term from the URL query string, does a search via SimpleHighrise, and returns the ids of all companies matching the term:

   $hr = new SimpleHighrise($site, $token, 'simplexml');
$searchTerm = $_GET['query'];
$resultCompanies = $hr->search_companies((string)$searchTerm);
foreach ($resultCompanies as $company) {
$idElements = $resultCompanies->xpath(’//company/id’);
$id = $idElements[$i];
echo ‘Comapny id: ‘.$id;
}


   Using XPath, you can get to any of the desired data returned in the XML.

   Thanks for using SimpleHighrise, and let me know if you have any further questions.

   May be obvious, may be helpful: To add street address when adding a new contact, I altered the function create_new_person() to the one below. Hope it helps someone (useful for capturing contact-form info).

   function create_new_person($firstName = "", $lastName = "", $phoneNumber = "", $companyName = "Just Added", $emailAddress = "foo@bar.com", $location = "Work",$street="", $city="", $state="",$zip="") {
return($this->request("people.xml",
array(
"person" => array(
"first-name" => $firstName,
"last-name" => $lastName,
"company-name" => $companyName,
"contact-data" => array(
"email-addresses" => array(
"email-address" => array(
"address" => $emailAddress,
"location" => $location
)
),
"phone-numbers" => array(
"phone-number" => array(
"number" => $phoneNumber,
"location" => $location
)
),
"addresses" => array(
"address" => array(
"street"=>$street,
"city" => $city,
"state"=> $state,
"zip"=>$zip,
"location"=>$location
)
)
)
)
)
, "POST"));
}

    I would also love to see this support SSL (and non-SSL, auto-detecting).

    As it is now, you have to give up a good bit of security in order to use this script.

    Would love to try any examples of the update record function. I want to add notes to both people and cases but am struggling here. I would also love the ability to search by email address but know that the Highrise API is not doing this yet! It is all good and loving your work!

    Does any one have an example of how to set up a form to create a new person?

    Thanks

    @Aaron,

    Here’s some sample for form code from nContxt, an app I built using SimpleHighrise:

    Form

    First Name
    
    Last Name
    
    Phone Number
    

    PHP

    
$hr = new SimpleHighrise($site, $token, 'simplexml', $sub_type);

    $fn = $_POST['firstName'];
    $ln = $_POST['lastName'];
    $pn = $_POST['phoneNumber'];

    $result = $hr->create_new_person($fn, $ln, $pn);
if (isset($_GET['debug'])) print_r($result);
$personIdElement = $result->xpath('//id');
$personId = $personIdElement[0];

    This isn’t working for me - maybe I’m missing something.

    When I print out the result I get SimpleXMLElement Object ( [body] => You are being . )

    Any tips greatly appreacated

    Thanks

    had some problems getting get_Id to work, most likely due to php version (wants 5, have 4) I got around that by doing:
    

    //function to pull first found persons ID out of the xml
function find_ID ($result = ""){
// goto person section
$PersonLine=strpos($result, "");
$string=substr($result, $PersonLine);
//goto ID line
$IDLine=strpos($result, "");
$string=substr($result, $IDLine);
// find first and last position of ID field
$IDLine=strpos($string,">");
$IDLineEnd=strpos($string,"");
//save out the ID
$string=substr($string,$IDLine + 1,$IDLineEnd - 1 - $IDLine );
return $string;
}


    also, I didn’t see a way to add a tag to a person. am I just blind?
