PHP SOAP create appointment example

[AddGun]

I need help in creating appointment in PHP by using SOAP.
Can anyone give me an example (complete code in PHP)?

[dkarp]

Easiest thing to do is turn on the SOAP trace debug window and create an appointment from the AJAX client. Then use the PHP SOAP package of your choice to generate XML like that...

I am trying to do the same thing, but I am not an administrator, but have an account, and don't know too much about Zimbra or SOAP. Is there an example out that will show all the steps to sending SOAP requests to Zimbra. I assume I have to provide login and password then send my request. I also need to send emails as well.

I don't mind figuring this out on my own, but I can't anything other than the "create an account" example that doesn't help me all that much.

Thanks for your help.

Same advice stands. Search the forums for how to open the debug window from your (non-admin) client. Then do your normal AJAX client operations and watch the SOAP fly by in the debug window.

Thanks for the response, but I was looking for something along the lines of a PHP or PEAR code example.

So I'm able go "login" to Zimbra without errors. Now, I'm trying to create the appointment. Here's the code I'm using and I'm not getting anywhere with it.
Anyone have any ideas?

If there is any documentation about this google hasn't heard of it.

Thanks

try {
$result = $soapClient->__soapCall("CreateAppointmentRequest",
array(
// new SoapParam('me', 'uid'),
new SoapParam("d=20080131T100000", 's'),
new SoapParam("d=20080131T120000", 'e'),
new SoapParam("a=client1", 'at'),
new SoapParam("a=client2", 'at')
)
);
}
catch (SoapFault $exception) {
//if(is_soap_fault($ZimbraSession))
// trigger_error("SOAP Fault: (faultcode: {$ZimbraSession->faultcode}, faultstring: {$ZimbraSession->faultstring})", E_USER_ERROR);
echo "exception caught $exception<br><br>";
//echo $client->__getLastRequest() . "<br><br>";
echo "Retrieveing Request Headers.....<br>";
echo $soapClient->__getLastRequestHeaders() . "<br><br>";
echo "Retrieveing Response Headers.....<br>";
echo $soapClient->__getLastResponseHeaders() . "<br><br>";
echo "Retrieveing Response.....<br>";
echo $soapClient->__getLastResponse() . "<br><br>";
echo $exception . "<br><br>";
}

And the response I get is.......


SoapFault exception: [soap:Client] unknown document: ns1:CreateAppointmentRequest in /dir_path/index.php:75 Stack trace: #0 /dir_path/index.php(10): SoapClient->__soapCall('CreateAppointme...', Array) #1 {main}

Make sure you set it up so that the request specifies that "CreateAppointmentRequest" is in the namespace "urn:zimbraMail".

Anybody have the slightest idea of how I would do this?

Thanks for you help.

I don't have a create appointment example... but I do have a search request example. Hope this helps.

<?php
    $options = array('uri' => "urn:zimbraMail");
	$params = array( 
    	new SoapParam("inbox", 'l'), 
    	new SoapParam("5", 'limit'), 
    	new SoapParam("is:unread", 'query'));
    	
    try {
        echo "creating header<br>";
        $soapHeader = new SoapHeader(
                    'urn:zimbra',
                    'context',
                    new SoapVar('<ns2:context><authToken>' . $authToken . '</authToken></ns2:context>', XSD_ANYXML)
                    );

        echo "trying<br>";
        $result = $client->__soapCall(
                    "SearchRequest",
                    $params,
                    $options,
                    $soapHeader
        );
        echo "executed<br>";
    } catch (SoapFault $exception) {
        echo "exception caught<br><br>";
        echo print_nice($client->__getLastRequest()) . "<br><br>";
        echo print_nice($client->__getLastRequestHeaders()) . "<br><br>";
        echo print_nice($client->__getLastResponseHeaders()) . "<br><br>";
        echo print_nice($client->__getLastResponse()) . "<br><br>";
        echo $exception . "<br><br>";
    }

    echo "done<br><br>";
    echo print_nice($client->__getLastRequest()) . "<br><br>";
    echo print_nice($client->__getLastResponse()) . "<br><br>";
?>

That really helped, but now I'm getting another error that is just as mysterious. Here is the code I came up with:


$options = array('uri' => "urn:zimbraMail");
$params = array(
new SoapParam("<s d=\"20080131T100000\" /> <e d=\"20080131T120000\" />
<at a=\"him\" /> <at a=\"her\" /> ", 'm')
);

try {
echo "creating header<br>";
$soapHeader = new SoapHeader(
'urn:zimbra',
'context',
new SoapVar('<ns2:context><authToken>' . $authToken . '</authToken></ns2:context>', XSD_ANYXML)
);

echo "trying<br>";
$result = $soapClient->__soapCall(
"CreateAppointmentRequest",
$params,
$options,
$soapHeader
); //<== line 80
echo "executed<br>";
}

and the error is:

SoapFault exception: [soap:Server] system failure: java.lang.NullPointerException in /calendar/index.php:80 Stack trace: #0 /calendar/index.php(80): SoapClient->__soapCall('CreateAppointme...', Array, Array, Object(SoapHeader)) #1 {main}



I have been trying to run the $set:debug 1 in my search window, but it either hangs or I an error like "Your skin won't allow some tree...". So I'm not sure how correct my syntax is.


Thanks all for your help.
