Zimbra SOAP

[allwyndsouza360]

Hi I am trying to create a contacts in a folder similar to the default Address book. I am using the below SOAP Envelop to do it.

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
	xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
	<SOAP-ENV:Header>
		<context xmlns="urn:zimbra">
			<authToken>
				0_3272262ab62f529a5ecbecffc0028bb8b13d3afe_69643d33363a37323037613338302d383639312d343266632d613761392d6536376530383265613736383b6578703d337373832343831323b
			</authToken>
			<sessionId id="85">85</sessionId>
		</context>
	</SOAP-ENV:Header>
	<SOAP-ENV:Body>
		<CreateFolderRequest xmlns="urn:zimbraMail">
			<folder fie="1" l="7" name="SugarContacts" />
		</CreateFolderRequest>
	</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Below is the response SOAP Message

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
	<soap:Header>
		<context xmlns="urn:zimbra">
			<sessionId id="85">85</sessionId>
			<change token="1100" />
		</context>
	</soap:Header>
	<soap:Body>
		<CreateFolderResponse xmlns="urn:zimbraMail">
			<folder id="261" name="SugarContacts" l="7" />
		</CreateFolderResponse>
	</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

When I login through Zimbra client I cannot see the folder SugarContacts created within Contacts folder or AddressBook. If anyone has faced this issue and has solution please get back to ASAP.

** Please update your post ***

you NEVER want to publish your ADMIN TOKEN..
if someone know your server link they can take this and have full ADMIN access using ADMIN SOAP api.

Admin token stays in session for 12 hours by default

Got the solution. It needs the view attribute to be set as contact in the create folder request.

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
	xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
	<SOAP-ENV:Header>
		<context xmlns="urn:zimbra">
			<authToken>
				0_dead990fb54a6b6f107fcebb6738401a9a99badc_69643d33363a37323037613338302d383639312d343266632d613761392d6536376530383265613736383b6578703d31333a313230333738303732313539393b
			</authToken>
			<sessionId id="90">90</sessionId>
		</context>
	</SOAP-ENV:Header>
	<SOAP-ENV:Body>
		<CreateFolderRequest xmlns="urn:zimbraMail">
			<folder fie="1" l="1" name="SugarContacts" view="contact" />
		</CreateFolderRequest>
	</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

I think that the Advanced client does not display addressbooks that are subfolders of other folders. Try moving the new addressbook to the top level (l="1") and see if things work for you.

I believe there's already a bug filed to the effect that the Advanced client should display nested addressbooks. I'd suggest voting for it as well!

I appreciate your advice and will take care next time on. However they are not admin tokens.

The solution is setting the view attribute for folder tag in create folder request to contacts and parent folder l="1"

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
	xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
	<SOAP-ENV:Header>
		<context xmlns="urn:zimbra">
			<authToken>
				
			</authToken>
			<sessionId id=""></sessionId>
		</context>
	</SOAP-ENV:Header>
	<SOAP-ENV:Body>
		<CreateFolderRequest xmlns="urn:zimbraMail">
			<folder fie="1" l="1" name="SugarContacts" view="contact" />
		</CreateFolderRequest>
	</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
