The error message describes the problem - the plugin doesn't have a reference to the JiwaSales.dll

You can either add it by explicitly adding the JiwaSales.dll to the Assembly References tab, or it will be added for you if you add either the sales order entry form to the Forms tab, or the sales order business logic to the Business Logic tab.

If your plugin wants to modify business logic behaviour then you probably want to add the sales order business logic to the Business Logic tab.

If your plugin wants to modify the form behaviour, then you probably want to add the sales order entry form to the Forms tab.

Thank you for reply.
That has cleared up that error message. As I am new to C#, some of this takes a bit of back ground learning.

So the code now looks like this:

And now I am getting this error:
"the name 'request' does not exist in the current context"

Sounds like you're missing a namespace. Either fully qualify the reference to the request type or add a using statement.

If you export the plugin to XML (utilities tab of Plugin Maintenance form) and attach the plugin here, one of us can import it and get the same error and help you fix it. Providing code snippets is difficult to debug / diagnose.

That would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
Will do.

Here is the exported plugin.
Thank you very much for helping with this.
Cheers

P.S. I realise this is set to disabled.
<IsEnabled>false</IsEnabled>
I could not enable it due to the errors.

Attached is a revised version of your plugin, such that it compiles.

Your issue was that you were referring to a request and not defining it.

So,

Code: Select all

public static void InsertToDoRequest()

Changed to:

Code: Select all

public void Post(InsertToDoRequest request)

I also needed to change your static class and property types to be not static.

And I wrapped your creating of the JiwaApplication.Manager in a using statement to make sure it is disposed properly - not doing that will result in connection pool exhaustion.

If you look in the REST API plugin, there are heaps of good examples of how to perform POST, PATCH, GET and DELETE operations - you can use those as a boilerplate guide.

After looking further, there are some other fixes needed before this has a hope of working.

I didn't notice at first, but you were creating a new JiwaApplication.Manager instance - you shouldn't do that and that will not work - you need to retrieve it from the request and to do that you need the extension method GetManager() which is defined in the REST API plugin, so you need to add a Plugin reference to that.

Revised plugin attached.

thank you very much for the reply.
I am still getting an error unfortunately.
Please see attached image.
Thank you.
