Thread: sendMail()

Hi Mike,

using the PHP snippit forsending an email with the v13 of the phpToolkit is rendering me this error:

***** Send Emails ***** Function ("sendEmail") is not a valid method for this service

My PHP looks like this:

PHP Code:

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~ E_NOTICE);

$SOAPCLIENT_DIR="soapclient/";

ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");
require_once ("$SOAPCLIENT_DIR/SforcePartnerClient.php");
require_once ("$SOAPCLIENT_DIR/SforceHeaderOptions.php");

require_once ('SalesforceUserSettings.php');

$partner_wsdl = "partner.wsdl.xml";

try {
  $mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
  $mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection('partner.wsdl.xml');
  $mylogin = $mySforceConnection->login($USERNAME, $PASSWORD);

  $singleEmail1 = new SingleEmailMessage();
  $singleEmail1->toAddresses = 'ron@byressecurity.com';
  $singleEmail1->plainTextBody = "Hello there";
  $singleEmail1->subject = "First Single Email";
  $singleEmail1->saveAsActivity = true;
  $singleEmail1->emailPriority = EMAIL_PRIORITY_LOW;

  $singleEmail2 = new SingleEmailMessage();
  $singleEmail2->toAddresses = 'ron@byressecurity.com';
  $singleEmail2->plainTextBody = "Hello there";
  $singleEmail2->subject = "Second Single Email";
  $singleEmail2->saveAsActivity = true;
  $singleEmail2->emailPriority = EMAIL_PRIORITY_LOW;

  echo "***** Send Emails *****\n";
  $emailResponse = $mySforceConnection->sendSingleEmail(array ($singleEmail1, $singleEmail2));

  print_r($emailResponse);

} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo $mySforceConnection->getLastRequest();
  echo $e->faultstring;
}

?>

....

Thanks

I'll add this bit, its in my Apache logs... fat chance finding this similar error on the inter web.

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method SforcePartnerClient::sendEmail() in /var/www/html/sforce-ssp/sendEmail.php on line 34

Easy to explain.. its not there, but why.. this is almost a direct copy of the snippit in the samples... SF make a change and not supporting this no more?

Hey i have not used this function yet in php and the new toolkit, if you give me a day or so, I can look into it and maybe I can help you out!

Sorry

~Mike

Thanks Mike!!

nice skin on the forum. Looks good

No idea what changed, but it seems to be working properly now... No permission changes, no firewall changes... caching issue perhaps.

Anyways the enterprise and partner snippits are as follows:

Partner snippit:

PHP Code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~ E_NOTICE);

$SOAPCLIENT_DIR="soapclient/";

ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");
require_once ("$SOAPCLIENT_DIR/SforcePartnerClient.php");
require_once ("$SOAPCLIENT_DIR/SforceHeaderOptions.php");

require_once ('SalesforceUserSettings.php');

$partner_wsdl = "partner.wsdl.xml";

try {
  $mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
  $mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection('partner.wsdl.xml');
  $mylogin = $mySforceConnection->login($USERNAME, $PASSWORD);

  $singleEmail1 = new SingleEmailMessage();
  $singleEmail1->toAddresses = 'brashr@itas.ca';
  $singleEmail1->plainTextBody = "Hello there";
  $singleEmail1->subject = "First Single Email";
  $singleEmail1->saveAsActivity = true;
  $singleEmail1->emailPriority = EMAIL_PRIORITY_LOW;

  echo "***** Send Emails *****\n";
  $emailResponse = $mySforceConnection->sendSingleEmail(array($singleEmail1));

  print_r($emailResponse);

} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo $mySforceConnection->getLastRequest();
  echo $e->faultstring;
}

?>

Enterprise Snippit:

PHP Code:

<?php
require_once ('SalesforceUserSettings.php');

define("SOAP_CLIENT_BASEDIR", "soapclient");
require_once (SOAP_CLIENT_BASEDIR.'/SforceEnterpriseClient.php');
try {
  $mySforceConnection = new SforceEnterpriseClient();
  $mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection('enterprise.wsdl.xml');
  $mylogin = $mySforceConnection->login($USERNAME, $PASSWORD);

  $singleEmail1 = new SingleEmailMessage();
  $singleEmail1->setToAddresses(array('brashr@itas.ca'));
  $singleEmail1->setPlainTextBody('My message');
  $singleEmail1->setSubject("A Single Email");
  $singleEmail1->setSaveAsActivity(true);
  $singleEmail1->setEmailPriority(EMAIL_PRIORITY_LOW);

  echo "***** Send Emails *****\n";
  $emailResponse = $mySforceConnection->sendSingleEmail(array($singleEmail1));

  print_r($emailResponse);
} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo $mySforceConnection->getLastRequest();
  echo $e->faultstring;
}

Now I'll try and see if I can get attachments to work for this and get these email activities to use templates and be correlated with a case.

okay cool man, sometimes salesforce just has flatulence glad that you got it sorted out and thanks for posting an example, that really helps others here and me!!

Here is the code to attach a text file to an email using the partner API.

PHP Code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~ E_NOTICE);

$SOAPCLIENT_DIR="soapclient/";

ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");
require_once ("$SOAPCLIENT_DIR/SforcePartnerClient.php");
require_once ("$SOAPCLIENT_DIR/SforceHeaderOptions.php");

require_once ('SalesforceUserSettings.php');

$partner_wsdl = "partner.wsdl.xml";

try {
  $mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
  $mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection('partner.wsdl.xml');
  $mylogin = $mySforceConnection->login($USERNAME, $PASSWORD);

  //$caseID is the case ID I want this email to be associated with.
  $caseID = '50080000006hFkW';
  //$contactID is the contacts ID I want this email to be sent to.
  $contactID = '0038000000aILfh';

  $singleEmail1 = new SingleEmailMessage();
  $singleEmail1->targetObjectId = $contactID;
  $singleEmail1->whatId = $caseID;
  $singleEmail1->toAddresses = 'ron@byressecurity.com';
  $singleEmail1->plainTextBody = "Hello, your license is attached.";
  $singleEmail1->subject = "Licensing Grants";
  $singleEmail1->saveAsActivity = true;
  $singleEmail1->emailPriority = EMAIL_PRIORITY_NORMAL;

  //Attachments, $file is the file in the directory the script is being ran from.

          $file = 'test.txt';
          $sObject1 = new SObject();
          $sObject1->type = 'Attachment';
          $handle = fopen($file,'rb');
          $file_content = fread($handle,filesize($file));
          fclose($handle);
          $sObject1->body = $file_content;
          $createFields = array (
            'fileName' => $file,
            'body' => $file_content
          );
          $sObject1->fields = $createFields;

  $singleEmail1->fileAttachments = array($createFields);

  echo "***** Send Emails *****<br />";
  $emailResponse = $mySforceConnection->sendSingleEmail(array($singleEmail1));

  echo "<br />***** Lots of Awesome *****<br />";
  print_r($emailResponse);

} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo $mySforceConnection->getLastRequest();
  echo $e->faultstring;
}

?>

Pretty simple, you should not need to encode the file being uploaded I think.

One Problem though is that the email is not being listed under the case with the attachment. I wonder if SF tracks the email as an object here and the task much like a log entry...

Hey Mike,

uploaded a screenshot to maybe make things clearer. The GUI section is where emails go and have OUTBOUND EMAIL on them when you click on them.
-These have [ref giberish ref] in 3 places.

THE API emails are only in activity, and don't have attachments and are NOT listed in the Emails section of the case....



I am looking with the APEX Explorer for references... It is in tasks like expected, but who what how, what references ( SF doesn't do joins like a regular db)

Mind Discombobulating

Edit**

Came in the office this morning and had a brain wave. I googled Salesforce outbound messaging... I wonder if how sf sends its emails through the GUI calls the method notification()???? I did some quick reading, but I am not all that familiar with SOAP. Maybe you or somebody else here knows?

I work with the outbound messaging in some of our processes and do not send emails by either method man, so I do not know the answer to your question

I know that the messages come in a XML format like this:

Code:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="XML Schema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
   <soapenv:Body>
    <notifications xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2005/09/outbound">
     <OrganizationId>00DS0000000ErwzMAC</OrganizationId>
     <ActionId>04k400000004CYMAA2</ActionId>
     <SessionId xsi:nil="true"/>
     <EnterpriseUrl>https://cs1-api.salesforce.com/services/Soap/c/8.0/00DS0000000Erwz</EnterpriseUrl>
     <PartnerUrl>https://cs1-api.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/8.0/00DS0000000Erwz</PartnerUrl>
     <Notification>
      <Id>04lS0000000tk6jIAA</Id>
      <sObject xsi:type="sf:OpportunityLineItem" xmlns:sf="urn:sobject.enterprise.soap.sforce.com">
       <sf:Id>00k40000004aqcGAAQ</sf:Id>
       <sf:Allocation__c>100.0</sf:Allocation__c>
       <sf:Competitors__c>TI</sf:Competitors__c>
       <sf:OpportunityId>00640000008HfSZAA0</sf:OpportunityId>
       <sf:Part_Outcome__c>Won</sf:Part_Outcome__c>
       <sf:Potential__c>3000000.0</sf:Potential__c>
       <sf:Price_Type__c>Quote</sf:Price_Type__c>
       <sf:PricebookEntryId>01u40000001E6mnAAC</sf:PricebookEntryId>
       <sf:Quantity>1.0</sf:Quantity>
       <sf:Socket_Freeze_Date__c>2009-03-27</sf:Socket_Freeze_Date__c>
       <sf:Socket_Label__c>MAXQ2021</sf:Socket_Label__c>
       <sf:UnitPrice>3.0</sf:UnitPrice>
      </sObject>
     </Notification>
    </notifications>
   </soapenv:Body>
  </soapenv:Envelope>

Hope that makes sense
