Connecting to the Web API using PHP

Caspian,  Here is an older thread talking about it.

http://www.tessituranetwork.com/Community/forums/p/940/3251.aspx

Are you looking at connecting to the REST API? It's going to be slightly different from the SOAP API (in the thread Jon referenced)

Thanks Jon & Paul. I'm looking at connecting to the SOAP API and have tried the examples from Morgan in that thread with our Test Gateway but unfortunately was not successful!  

The cURL is what I use. You can read about it here.http://php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php

Looks something like this (this gets a session key).

<?php

$session = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($session, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://SOME_IP_ADDRESS/testapi/tessiturasimpletype.asmx/GetNewSessionKey?sIP=string');
curl_setopt($session, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($session, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);


$response = curl_exec($session);

if(curl_errno($session))
{
    echo 'Curl error: Unable to obtain session ID ' . curl_error($session);
}

curl_close($session);

?>

Thanks Travis! I've managed to connect and run a couple of methods using that.

Cheers,

No problem. I am thinking you will probably be asking this next, so here you go. Let me know if I can help out.
