Topic: Highrise API / Search By Email Address

I’m discovering Highrisehq API and I’ve not been able to search people by email address or phone number.
This should be the first step for you to check if a customer already exists.

My understanding of API is that the request bellow is only working for some fields :
curl -u token:X https://subdomain.highrisehq.com/people.xml?title=CEO

It does work for title but it doesn’t for id, last-name , zip or city.
For id, it might come from the fact an id field is stored as an integer and maybe this should be reflected in query.
For other fields, I don’t have a good explaination, at the moment.

How did you query email address ?

Topic: Highrise API / Authentication token and API access

Hello,

Does accessing Highrishq data from API requires specific access rights ?

I mean is having a 40 letters authentication token enough to request data according this http://developer.37signals.com/highrise/index.shtml ?
Do I need a special subscription to different Highrisehq plans ?

Regards

Topic: Highrise API / Cannot connect with curl through API

Hi,

In reply to :
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/login
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people/1.xml
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people/1
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people/5645571.xml
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people/5645571.xml

curl -u MyToken:X https://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people/1
curl -u MyToken:X https://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people/5645571.xml

I’ve got a series of :
<html><body>You are being redirected.</body></html>

where:
MyToken is a forty letters authentication token from My-Info
myurl is a the character string input after https://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/

I’m using Ubuntu.

When using a Firefox browser, I can access most previous pages content (when using .xml, pages are in XML format and without .xml, pages are in HTML format).

Though, I think I carefully followed those instructions : http://developer.37signals.com/highrise/index.shtml

My questions are :
- Do I need special settings to access data from API and curl ?
- Do you have any single one-line curl example (to a demo, a fake or whatever account) so that I can be certain this issue comes from me mis-using curl or from account settings ?
- Any hint on this ?

Regards

24 hours later, I’m still unable to connect using curl.
I’m opening a new thread on that.

Topic: Highrise API / Does sample.highrisehq.com work ?

In previous message, when I wrote MyToken:X, I meant I typed a 40 letters token (from MyInfo) and then letters ”:” and X.
I must add I created my account this morning (ie 10 hours ago), so maybe, my account is not correctly set, at the moment.

Topic: Highrise API / Does sample.highrisehq.com work ?

1. In reply to :
curl -u MyToken:X http://my-sub-domain.highrisehq.com/people.xml

I’ve got :
<html><body>You are being redirected.</body></html>

Any idea, why ?

2. Allowing every developer to access a sample account would help to learn how to handle API handling before diving into other topics.
I understand it might not

Topic: Highrise API / Does sample.highrisehq.com work ?

Hi,

This http://developer.37signals.com/highrise/index.shtml mentions several times examples like :
curl -u 605b32dd:X http://sample.highrisehq.com/people/1.xml

When typing this example with either this 605b32dd token or my own authentication token, I’ve got :
HTTP Basic: Access denied.

Is this example supposed to work exactly as such ?
If not, would it be possible to make it so ?

Regards
