Can I access my hosted account via the webservice

[Ankit]

Hello,

I am trying to integrate a ticketing system with erpnext. We already have a hosted account with erpnext.
Is this possible?


To explain what I am trying to achieve, here is a use case scenario:
1. We create a ticket in the ticketing system. Once the job is done, we hit a button called send to erpnext.
2. Via webservice a customer is created if he doesn’t exist.
3. An invoice is created for that customer.
4. Optional from here on: Would be awesome to add items to that invoice by providing item codes through ticketing system.

All suggestion welcome.

regards
Ankit

Ankit,

This is possible.

ERPNext exposes a JSON based web service API (which is incidentally used in the web UI also) and it can be used to login and get data / push data into erpnext.

here is how you do it in Python

https://github.com/webnotes/wnframework/blob/master/webnotes/utils/webclient.py

Here is an example:

Hello Rushabh,

I have read this on the forum.
Can you please give the live url to access this webservice for my hosted account,
That way I can see all the methods available and start testing.

regards
Ankit

Ankit,

Your url is your account url for example:

myaccount.erpnext.com/server.py

All the safe methods are currently in webclient.py (if you need more, just post them on the forum, but this should suffice for your current requirement)

best,

Should i be able to access the webservice from the web browser?

[Rushabh Mehta]

Ofcourse - like I said, this is the same way ERPNext application interacts with the server.

myaccount.erpnext.com/server.py

redirects me to the login page.
can you try this on my behalf.

This is what I tried a few days ago and it didn't work then too.

i am substituting myaccount with the actual account name.
I have the latest version of the browser.
I am logged in.

Ankit - myaccount is just an example - use your own account url.

Ankit,

Please read webclient.py carefully.

You need the "cmd" argument to specify the method. Without that it will redirect you to login.
