Using the OTRS API via PHP/SOAP (Generic Interface)

Post by macjohnny »

Hi everybody

I recently developed a connector script for using the OTRS API Generic Interface with PHP/SOAP. Feel free to use any of the code below for your own project.
You will have to create a WebService in OTRS. Once You have set it up, you can use PHP SOAP functions.

Code: Select all

<?php
namespace ClusterNetCore\Modules\App\API\External\OTRSConnector;
class OTRSConnectorMain extends \ClusterNetCore\Modules\Module\ModuleMain{
	
	
	protected $SOAPClientInstance;
	protected $LoggedIn = false;
	protected $Credentials = array();
	protected $GBSNetCredentials = array();
	protected $OTRSSpecialCredentials = array();
	
	public $SupportTickets = array();
	public $SupportTicketArticles = array();
	public $FAQCategories = array();
	public $FAQArticles = array();
	
	
	protected $SupportTicketsLoaded = false;
	protected $SupportTicketArticlesLoaded = false;
	protected $FAQCategoriesLoaded = false;
	protected $FAQArticlesLoaded = false;
	
	
	
	protected $HasUserData = true;
	
	protected $AdditionalFields = array(
		'Location' => 4,
		'Raumnummer' => 3,
		'Contact' => 5
	);
	
	public function ModuleConstructor($Parameters)
	{
		//https://yourhost.com/otrs/nph-genericinterface.pl
		$URL = $this->App->CredentialManagerInstance->GetFieldModuleInstance('App_ExternalApplication_Key')->GetExternalApplicationURL('OTRS', 'SOAP');
		

		$this->Credentials = $this->App->CredentialManagerInstance->GetExternalApplicationCredentials('OTRS');
		$this->GBSNetCredentials = $this->App->CredentialManagerInstance->GetExternalApplicationCredentials('GBSNet');

first, you need to initialize a soapclient, so you do

Code: Select all

$SOAPClientInstance = new \SoapClient(null, array(
               'location'=> $URL.'/Webservice/'.$WebserviceName.'/',
               'uri' => $this->Configuration['Namespace'],
               'trace' => 1,
               'login' => $this->Configuration['SOAPUserCredentials']['Username'],
               'password'=> $this->Configuration['SOAPUserCredentials']['Password'],
               'style' => SOAP_RPC,
               'use' => SOAP_ENCODED
            )
         );
then you can have a look at

Code: Select all

function SaveSupportTicket()
, you can change the data of the ticket and it will save it.
if you need further assistance, you can contact me here: esteban dot marin _at_ bithost dot ch

Till now i have tried this

$url = "https://my.url.com/otrs/rpc.pl"; // URL for OTRS server
$username = "ctdeveloper"; // SOAP username set in sysconfig
$password = "ctdeveloper"; // SOAP password set in sysconfig



### Form Fields

$new_owner =$_POST['new_owner'];
$subject =$_POST['subject'];
$text = $_POST['text'];
$note_type = $_POST['note_type'];


#### Initialize new client session ####
$client = new SoapClient(
null,
array(
'location' => $url,
'uri' => "Core",
'trace' => 1,
'login' => $username,
'password' => $password,
'style' => SOAP_RPC,
'use' => SOAP_ENCODED
)
);

$ticket_update = $client->__soapCall("Dispatch",
array($username, $password,
"TicketObject" => "TicketUpdate",
"TicketID" => "$ticket_id",
"Title" => "$subject",
"Owner" => $new_owner,
"QueueID" => 4,
"CustomerUserLogin", "ctdeveloper",
)
);

##### Create an article with the info. The function returns an Article ID ####
$ArticleID = $client->__soapCall("Dispatch",
array($username, $password,
"TicketObject", "ArticleCreate",
"ArticleType", $note_type,
"Subject", $subject,
"ContentType", "text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1",
"Body", $text,


)
);

you need to use the URL for the generic interface, i.e.

http//my.url.com/otrs/nph-genericinterface.pl

also, you need to set up a WebService in OTRS. See https://otrs.github.io/doc/manual/admin ... ebservices

hey

to update a ticket, you need to

Code: Select all

	$URL = 'https://my.url.com/otrs/nph-genericinterface.pl';
	$namespace = 'https://my.url.com/otrs/GenericInterface/actions';
	
	// initialize a SoapClient instance
	$SOAPClientInstance = new \SoapClient(null, array(
               'location'=> $URL,
               'uri' => $namespace,
               'trace' => 1,
               'login' => $username,
               'password'=> $password,
               'style' => SOAP_RPC,
               'use' => SOAP_ENCODED
            )
         );
	
	// set the request parameters as an array of SoapParam instances
      $TicketRequestArray = array(
         new \SoapParam($username, 'CustomerUserLogin'),
         new \SoapParam($soap_username, 'UserLogin'),
         new \SoapParam($password, "Password"), 
      );

         $TicketRequestArray[] = new \SoapParam($TicketID, 'TicketID');
         $TicketRequestArray[] = new \SoapParam(array(
            'State' => 'open'
         ), 'Ticket');
         $Action = 'TicketUpdate';
         
         $Response = $SOAPClientInstance->__soapCall($Action, 
         $TicketRequestArray
      );

Code: Select all

         $TicketRequestArray[] = new \SoapParam(array(

         $Action = 'TicketUpdate';
         
         $Response = $SOAPClientInstance->__soapCall($Action,

A big thanks to @macjohnny who has been a big help. Without whom my problem would not have been solved.
Here is my final code for updating owners or updating tickets in general.

$URL = 'https://your-url.com/otrs/nph-genericin ... erviceName'; //webserviceName is the name of webservice created from admin panel of otrs
$namespace = 'https://your-url.com/otrs/GenericInterface/actions'; //namespace of soap config

$username = "username"; //// SOAP username set in sysconfig
$password = "password"; //// SOAP password set in sysconfig

// initialize a SoapClient instance
$SOAPClientInstance = new \SoapClient(null, array(
'location'=> $URL,
'uri' => $namespace,
'trace' => 1,
'login' => $username,
'password'=> $password,
'style' => SOAP_RPC,
'use' => SOAP_ENCODED,

)
);


// set the request parameters as an array of SoapParam instances
$TicketRequestArray = array(

new \SoapParam('username', 'UserLogin'), //user username
new \SoapParam('password', "Password"),// user password
);

$TicketRequestArray[] = new \SoapParam('123', 'TicketID');// ID of ticket which is to be updated
$TicketRequestArray[] = new \SoapParam(array(
'State' => 'open',
'OwnerID' => $new_owner, // you can add which parameters to update
), 'Ticket');
$Action = 'TicketUpdate';

$Response = $SOAPClientInstance->__soapCall($Action,
$TicketRequestArray
);

print "<pre>\n";
print "Request :\n".htmlspecialchars($SOAPClientInstance->__getLastRequest()) ."\n";
print "Response:\n".htmlspecialchars($SOAPClientInstance->__getLastResponse())."\n";
print "</pre>";
