I’ve been following your API v2 guides and snagged the PHP sample listed here:

https://github.com/WildApricot/ApiSamples/blob/master/PHP/sampleApplication.php

I was able to properly implement the getAccountDetails function and I created a getContactIdFromEmail function that tweaked the getContactsList function to filter on an email address.

Now I’m trying to update the FirstName of the Contact that I received. Here’s the code:

function updatePasswordByContactId($contactId, $email)

{

global $waApiClient;

global $accountUrl;

$url = $accountUrl . "/Contacts/Contact/{$contactId}";

$data = array("FirstName" => "Chaz2");

$result = $waApiClient->makeRequest($url, "PUT", $data);

return true;

}

I analyzed the CURL parameters to see that it is calling the URL:

https://api.wildapricot.org/v2/Accounts/73659/Contacts/Contact/25710546 ALIDCONTACTID

In a “PUT” with the following JSON data:

{"FirstName":"Chaz2"}

I tried using “First name”, “Email”, and “e-Mail” and nothing seems to work.

It simply will return an empty string which gets JSON decoded to NULL.

Help!
