I would run a phpinfo() from within the same environment and make sure curl is enabled.

The curl-init method is located at the top of the QuickBase SDK class.

- Joshua

I am evaluating a PHP editor called NuSphere 6.1 and I am running some php scripts with this product and I am getting the following error from the QuickBase api class.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in Z:\APO\qb-arh-php-works\QuickBaseClient.php on line 127

However, when I run the same scripts from the browser it runs fine without showing the error.

Do you know where is the curl-init method located? Any advise,

thank you,

Alex

For the do_query example, I need to retrieve a field from a record based on a criteria.

Something like “Select accountNo from Transaction where billingNo = some value

I have he following code but is not showing any output…

$line = fgetcsv($fp);

$ArhBillingNumber = $line[1];

$query= array(
array(‘fid’ => ’10′,
‘ev’ => ‘ex’,
‘cri’ => $ArhBillingNumber));

$results = quickbase->do_query($query,”,”,’11′);

echo $results.”;

Please Advise,

Alex

$queries = array(
array(
‘fid’ => ’16′,
‘ev’ => ‘ex’,
‘cri’ => ‘eve’)
),
array(
‘fid’ => ’19′,
‘ev’ => ‘ex’,
‘cri’ => ‘manager’,
‘ao’ => ‘AND’
)
);

Can u please give us an example to fetch data from multiple tables in quickbase.

Thanks,
-Sagar.

let’s say where user is ‘eve’ AND ‘role is ‘manager’

I could building something pretty easily that would allow WordPress / QuickBase Integration.

What in particular would you want the plugin to do?

- Joshua

Are you aware of any work been done to integrate WordPress and Quickbase?

Thanks!

Here’s a PHP example:

// any file upload?
if($_FILES['_fid_21']['name']) {
$file_name = $_FILES['_fid_21']['name'];
$f_tmp_name = $_FILES['_fid_21']['tmp_name'];
$file_size = $_FILES['_fid_21']['size'];

$fh = fopen($f_tmp_name, ‘r’);
$content = fread($fh, $file_size);
$content = base64_encode($content);
fclose($fh);

$uploads = array( array(‘fid’ => ’21′,
‘filename’ => $file_name,
‘value’ => $content) );
}

// add activity record
$quickbase = new QuickBase($username,$password,true, $dbID);
if ($quickbase) {
$payload = array(array(
‘fid’ => some_field_id,
‘value’ => some_val),
array(
‘fid’ => some_field_id,
‘value’ => some_val)
);

$resp = $quickbase->add_record($payload, $uploads);

QB Wrapper Code Addition:

public function user_roles() {
if($this->xml) {
$xml_packet = new SimpleXMLElement(”);
$xml_packet->addChild(‘ticket’,$this->ticket);
if ($this->app_token)
$xml_packet->addChild(‘apptoken’, $this->app_token);
$xml_packet = $xml_packet->asXML();
$response = $this->transmit($xml_packet, ‘API_UserRoles’);
}

if($response) {
return $response;
}
return false;
}

In my main php file, I use this to call the new function:
$results = $quickbase->user_roles();

$results will contain an array of all of the users in the database.

First of all, thank you for creating this QuickBase wrapper. I’ve been using it to add and search records and all works great.

Today I need to update a record and I’m having difficulty achieving this task. I’m able to search & retrieve the record; but when I call the $quickbase->edit_record($fields); method I’m getting an error it doesn’t update the database.

Where/How do I tell it which record to update?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Changing line 884 to:
$url_string = $this->qb_ssl . $this->db_id. “?act=API_GetSchema&ticket=”. $this->ticket . “&apptoken=” . $this->app_token;

And also adding this line to the XML version of the call:
$xml_packet->addChild(‘apptoken’,$this->app_token);

seemed to fix the problem.

Thanks for this! I was able to create a small front-end web form for QuickBase data entry using the concepts above. I just didn’t get how to use the PHP wrapper until I saw your examples. I was also able to satisfy those people in our group who said “the form is so ugly – I can’t stand it”

Thanks again!
Tim

I have an application where I parse the Quickbase results and display them on a search results page. In some cases the quickbase query returns so many records that I’m getting a memory error in PHP. I’d like to set up the results page so that I display a limited number of results and include links at the bottom so user can click to load the next set. I read about options skp-n and num-n but I haven’t had any luck figuring out how to specify those options in the do_query function. I tried the following with no luck:
$results = $quickbase->do_query($queries, ”, ”, ’6.9.11.13.14.20.31.33.34.81′, ”, ”,’num-500′);

Any suggestions on how I can add the options?

Thanks,
Jennifer

Good work on this API.

Do you have a sample code using the public function add_record but with uploads? (i am using $usexml = true;)
What kind of variable is $upload?
How do upload the file?

$response = $qb->add_record ($fields, $uploads);

I just want to know if there is a possibility to update the password in QuickBase via API ?

Thanks for your answers.

I have been using the QB Perl SDK for some time, but now must venture down the PHP path. The below is returning an invalid request, and I am not sure why. My test is to return all the records from a table. It appears that authentication is succeeding, and that the token is behaving correctly. What am I missing? Thanks much!

$quickbase = new QuickBase(‘$username’, ‘$password’, true, ‘$dbid’, ‘$QBToken’);
$queries = array(
array(
‘fid’ => ’0′,
‘ev’ => ‘ct’,
‘cri’ => ”)
);
$results = $quickbase->do_query($queries, ”, ”, ”);

This could be an alternative to Flex as well if the sandboxing issue is a pain.

Feel free to ping me on google talk if you ever have any other questions: goodespeler@gmail.com

- Joshua

Flex has been great for building really nice graphs using the QB data. Also, I built an interface for transferring certain records from other systems into QB.

However, I like the idea of using PHP for getting the data in and out of QB for the Flex front end to use. It’s great that you made php wrapper for this. I will try it out today.

Thanks!

Which of course, we aren’t going to do as that isn’t feasible.

We actually have a flex app that we use for the front-end, but we route all API requests to PHP files to handle the heavy lifting. This may help you with development as you’ll spend more time debugging php than flex and having to go through multiple builds and then re-uploading it.

Firebug will also let you look at the request/response from the flex app to your PHP – again useful for local debugging.

Have you looked Intuit’s Partner Platform? It’s a QuickBase-based platform that comes with a Flex QuickBase SDK – and it provides you a dev. sandbox for your Flex app. Check it out: https://ipp.developer.intuit.com/

I am looking at ways of using Flex/Flash with QB, but am running into all sorts of Sandbox violations unless I host the SWF within the Quickbase domain. I am actually fine with that, but it makes development tricky b/c my local host triggers the Sandbox violation messages too…

Currently, I trust run a trace in Flex to make sure the API URLs have been built correctly. Then I upload the SWF and it runs perfectly. I am using Flash Builder 4 beta 2.
