Hey, have you given any more thought to this? I’m trying to implement it and keep getting “Resource path is not callable” when I try to make the API call. Not sure what I’m missing.

Looks like just another dead blog on the net. Pity.

Weird… under system -> advanced -> advanced -> Disable Module Output I can see the module “CompanyName_ModuleName” and it’s enabled. So Magento knows it’s there.

Thinking maybe I need to define the API adapters to make accessible externally…

Doesn’t work for me in v1.3.1 Changed “test” to ModuleName too. Always get “invalid api path”. Been over and over it, no dice.

Hi,

We need to create a new order through a Web Services API. A Magento Custom API for sales order creation – sales_order.create – for a Customer Login, a Virtual Product SKU, quantity = 1, price = $X.XX, Customized Options, no billing, no shipping.

Another System will make this “sales_order.create” transaction via Magento XML-RPC Magento API.

Could you provide development services for this job, please?

Best,

Carlos Rocha

Ah sorry, i don’t see:

And there you have it! You can call your method using resource_name.methodName like you would any other API call.

But what is the ressource name here?

Hello,

Thanks for this tutorial.

But now, how do you call api?

I other word, what is the method name for the api call?

I Try this without sucess:

$client->call(’call’, array($session, ‘modulename/objectmodel_api.methodname’))

last note, I promise: Arguments work as expected: I was using xmlrpc and (as opposed to what the magento docs say) you have to wrap the argument as an array - even if there is just one.

Thanks again!

Just a note: the config.xml file incorrectly (well, didnt work for me!) has tag “test” under models. I had to change this to “modulename” (Also, my codebase goes app/etc/Modules not app/Modules/etc - maybe a recent change.)

One question… how do you get arguments to work? if i try to pass a parameter to the methodName call, it says “bad parameters”. Is the method signature the only place you need to list the API parameters?

Thanks!

I copied and pasted what I found on this site. I am using v 1.2.0.2.

I’m getting this in my soap response:

****
Uncaught SoapFault exception: [4] Resource path is not callable
****

What could be the problem? Email me if you can help.
