  • Hi Umar,

    Ideal way to go by sugar entry point checking but you can use following code as well.

    Can you please write following code in top of the "sample.php" file and try to make your ajax call and database operations same as sugar way?

    <?php

    if(!defined('sugarEntry'))

      define('sugarEntry', true);

    require_once ('include/entryPoint.php');

    global $db, $current_user;

    << YOUR CODE HERE >>

    // HERE $db and $current_user are accessible same as sugar any module file

    << END HERE>>

    ?>

  • Hello Devang,

    Thankyou for your reply.

    $name = $current_user->name;

  • Can you please share your exact same file with me if possible?

  • My ajax call

    $("#btn_ajax").click(function(){

            $.ajax({

           type : "POST",

           url : "sample_info.php",

           datatype : "html",

           success : function Display(msg) {

            $("#ajax_div").html(msg);

           }

          });

             });

    and sample.php

    <?php

    if(!defined('sugarEntry'))

      define('sugarEntry', true);

    require_once ('include/entryPoint.php');

    global $db, $current_user;

    $name = $current_user->name;

    echo $name;

    ?>

    thats it just trying to echo the name.
