How to POST appointment with JSON?

[Айдын Темеков]

Hello!

I can't send POST to create new appointment with JSON.

Who did this?

Do I need to send something like this?

https://sd.shopuchet.kz/index.php/api/v1/appointments?[{"id": 6,       "book": "2018-09-24 16:53:01",       "start": "2018-10-10 11:45:00",       "end": "2018-10-10 12:15:00",       "notes": null,       "customerId": 13,       "providerId": 9,       "serviceId": 2,       "googleCalendarId": null}]

But it's not working.... How can I test it in something like SOAPUI?

I've been testing and I know that it has to be done with ajax, but I'm getting error 500 (internal server error) in the result of the ajax call.

However if I do it with the curl command I'm successful.

In the next link there are som documentation for the restfull API:

http://easyappointments.org/docs.html#1.3.2/rest-api.md

For the ajax code contact me with pm for help.

Hi, Finally I have achieve to post appointments through pure JSON from the Browser with JavaScript.

I advise you to do tests with CURL command. For example:

For get appointments use the following command:

curl https://yourdomain.com/easyappointmentpath/index.php/api/v1/appointments --user adminuser:password

The previous command will show you by console all the appointments in JSON format registered in EA.

For get customers use the following command:

curl https://yourdomain.com/easyappointmentpath/index.php/api/v1/customers --user adminuser:password

The previous command will show you by console all the customers in JSON format registered in EA.

For get avalilable hours for a specific date use the following command:

curl https://yourdomain.com/easyappointmentpath/index.php/api/v1/availabilities?providerId=2&serviceId=5[&date=2018-06-21] --user adminuser:password

The previous command will show you by console all the available hours considering the following: The provider with Id=2, the service with Id=5 and the date 06/21/2018. All in JSON format. The date is optional.

You can POST appointments but you have to create a new customer in case isn't registered in EA. I didn't find this in the documentation clearly. So I had to do several tests.

For search a customer by email you can use the following command:

curl https://yourdomain.com/easyappointmentpath/index.php/api/v1/customers?q=emlusr@domain --user adminuser:password

You can use the name, last name or another value too.

For create customers you can use the followin command:

curl https://yourdomain.com/easyappointmentpath/index.php/api/v1/customers --user adminuser:password -X POST -d '{"firstName":"Julio","lastName": "Berne","email": "jb@domain","phone": "+56965736649","address": "","city": "","zip": "","notes": null}'

After you send this request to the server you will get a JSON response from the server like the following:

{
    "id": 11,
    "firstName": "Julio",
    "lastName": "Berne",
    "email": "jb@domain",
    "phone": "+56965736649",
    "address": null,
    "city": null,
    "zip": null,
    "notes": null
}

And you will get a customer id (new custemer Id = 11) generated by the EA server.

Then the only thing missing is to create the appointment. You can do it with the following command:

curl https://yourdomain.com/easyappointmentpath/index.php/api/v1/appointments
 --user adminuser:password -X POST -d '{"start": "2018-12-16 10:00:00","end": "2018-12-16 11:00:00","customerId": 11,"providerId": 2,"serviceId": 1}'

You will get a JSON response like following:

{
    "id": 19,
    "book": "2018-12-03 04:55:26",
    "start": "2018-12-16 10:00:00",
    "end": "2018-12-16 11:00:00",
    "hash": "7a36dc51ff12b8ea841212ab571ae6ee",
    "notes": null,
    "customerId": 11,
    "providerId": 2,
    "serviceId": 1,
    "googleCalendarId": null
}

I haven't tried integrating EA with google calendars yet. You only need adapt this commands to your JS code... which is the funniest part!!!

Hope this can help you

Bye.
