SugarCRM Rest API Example: How to get all contacts for an account
This relies on the following PHP Wrapper Class: http://github.com/asakusuma/SugarCRM-REST-API-Wrapper-Class/
For a slightly better formatted answer see my Stackoverflow Post Here.
/**
* returns an array of contacts that are related to the accountId passed as a param.
* The array returned will be an array of associative arrays.
* @param $accountId
* @param array $contactSelectFields optional sets the different items to return, default includes id, email1, name, title, phone_work, and description
* @return array
*
*/
public function getAllContactsAtOrganization( $accountId, $contactSelectFields=array("id", "email1", "name", "title", "phone_work", "description")) {
$sugar = new Sugar_REST( SUGAR_REST_URL, SUGAR_USER_NAME, SUGAR_PASSWORD);
$fields = array( "Accounts" => array("id", "name"),
"Contacts" => $contactSelectFields);
$options = array(
'where' => "accounts.id='$accountId'"
);
$apiResult = $sugar->get_with_related("Accounts", $fields, $options );
$contacts = array();
foreach( $apiResult['relationship_list'][0]['link_list'][0]['records'] as $almostContact) {
$curr = array();
foreach($contactSelectFields as $key) {
$curr[$key] = $almostContact['link_value'][$key]['value'];
}
$contacts[] = $curr;
}
//print_r($contacts);
return $contacts;
}
