Insert/Fetch/Edit sugarCRM records from Web form

REQUIRED: My requirement is passing record information from a web form into SugarCRM and either creating a new record or appending an action to an existing record. 

DONE SO FAR: I have installed sugarCRM on my server. And inserted the User through Users module using '..../service/v4/rest.php' by Curl request.

please let me know is this the right way to proceed. And ways to fetch abd edit sugarCRM records.  Thanks in Advance

  • Hi Raghav,

    If you want users to be able to submit a form and have their contact information entered in Sugar as a record, you best bet is to use the Web to Lead Form. However, if you want to generate your own application to Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete records in Sugar, you're on the right track, as our Web Services is going to be the ideal option. That link should provide you with some great documentation and some basic examples on how to get this working. Let me know if you have any issues or questions!

  • Hi Alan

    Thanks for your feedback.

    As i totally new to SugarCRM. Can you just elaborate the process of fetching and updating the inserted users from Sugar DB using webservices. Like which one to use REST or SOAP?

    and also how to access the functions like "get_available_modules".

    Thanks In advance.
