New API Function

[waddye]

I want to create a new API function to handle some Shopify and Adobe Livecycle requests. I got Tim's example to work based on this thread: http://www.weberp.org/forum/showthread.p...hlight=api but when I created my new function I am receiving the following error.

Code:

As you can see it is saying it cannot find the method. The pages that I updated are:
api_stock.php // Page that contains my new function
api_xml-rpc.php // Documentation page for the new function
RunSQLQuery.php // Page to run my new function

What pages do I need to update to get the new function to work? The function does not show up in the /doc/Manual/ManualContents.php?ViewTopic=APIFunctions even though I have edited that page.

Hi, is the function registered in the xmlrpc_server array near the bottom of the api_xml-rpc.php script.

From your debug info it appears you are receiving an "Unknown method" error, and so this is the most likely cause.

Hope this helps,
Tim

Awesome! That worked!

Thanks Tim!
