Introduction
The Commit API allows you to add/update the following entities:
- Accounts
- Assets
- Tickets
- Charges
- Appointments
- Tasks
- History Notes
- Opportunities
- Documents
- Knowledge Base Articles
Each API method requires a list of parameters which contain the field names and their values. The field names are the Database field names. You can see each field's name within the application (so you can verify which field you are about to update), by right-clicking the field and selecting Field Settings > Advanced Tab > view the Tech. Rec ID field.
You can view the complete list of database fields in the API Reference Manual above.
Following are samples for using the API by Email and the Programming API. The samples are basic and provide an easy starting point.
Code samples
The following code samples demonstrate how to add and update a record in CommitCRM from VBA, C++ or Delphi programs.
Make sure to read Using Commit API before going through the samples, as it provides an overview of the Commit API work-flow and how it should be used.
To test samples, it is recommended that you download a trial version of CommitCRM from our web site and install it on a new computer that is not running CommitCRM. Then, modify the paths in the source code to point to folder <testcomputer>\Commit\LastVer (and to the same files it already points to).
When developing your programs please make sure you work under the <testcomputer>\Commit\ThirdParty\UserDev folder (or at least call the dlls in this location). Do not copy the dll’s to any other location.
These samples create a connection to CommitCRM's database, add a new Account record into the database, and update it. Each transaction should specify the database table to be updated by the transaction:
| Application entity | Table name | Code |
|---|---|---|
| Accounts | Cards | 10 |
| Opportunities | Opps | 20 |
| Documents | Docs | 30 |
| Charges | Docs | 30 |
| Charges | Slips | 40 |
| Appointments/Tasks | Events | 50 |
| History Notes | Notebook | 60 |
| Tickets | Tickets | 70 |
| Items | Items | 80 |
| Assets | Assets | 90 |
| Knowledge Base | KBArticles | 100 |
API functions
The Programming API provides the following API functions:
| Method | Return Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CmtInitDbEngDll (app_name, path, status) | status (int) | Establishes a connection to the database. app_name - This string will be used for all functions of the package, and will appear in the application as the user who performs the changes in the records you update. You should specify a meaningful value. path - The path to the DB folder where the Commit server is installed: <server>\Commit\Db status - 1 for success. See Error Codes Description for other values. |
| CmtInsUpdRec(data_buff, map_buff, flag, tbd, rec_id_buff_size, error_codes_buff_size, |
status (int), rec_id (char) | Adds/Updates records. data_buff - string containing the values to insert into the Database |
| CmtTerminateDbEngDll | Close the connection to the database | |
| CmtGetDescriptionByCode (code, desc_size, desc) |
message (char) | Call this function in case of error in CmtInsUpdRec. |
| CmtGetDescriptionByStatus | Call this function in case of error in CmtInitDbEngDll |
Field buffers The record to be added/updated in the database is passed to the Commit API in two buffers:
| Parameter | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| data_buff | String containing the values to insert into the Database. Separators between the fields are defined in the map_buff | "17/04/2008 14:44", "CRD7C9KZPS9JN3LEZVD9", "Charge", "CRDGO0SVQ6074CMAN7DW","Closed","test note in DB Engine", "NTBL6PDPKUU6NXLRHLHP","CRDBSMJ3P72EHMU0HB LX","TKT4S81466E05IM8P23X" |
| map_buff | Mapping of the data_buff: separators, field names.
Field names must be in the same order as the data_buff values. The field names should be separated with a different separator than the values (e.g. "new line"). |

XML samples
Following are samples for adding a new Ticket and a new Charge to the Commit database using XML formatted messages.
Make sure to go over the Email Connector setup guide, and perform the XML API setup steps prior to testing the XML API.
Also please read Commit API Reference Manual before going through the samples, as it provides an overview of the Commit API work-flow and how it should be used.
Notes on API by Email Activation:
- Error Handling - Should the system fail to perform the XML transaction, an error message will be sent to the email address specified in the XML.
- Using a Password - If you wish to use a verification password for the XML transactions, define the password using the ServerConfig.exe utility. To do so, go to the XML tab, enable the API by Email option and set a password (as specified in the XML - see General XML Tokens). Make sure to set the same Password in ServerConfig and in the XML email itself.
You can read more about the ServerConfig and how to setup the API by Email configuration in the Commit Email Connector Setup guide.
General XML Tokens
The sample and table demonstrates general parameters which should be used for any XML transaction.
For all field description see the API Reference Manual.
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <?commitcrmxml version = "1.0" ?> <CommitCRMTransaction> <ExternalApplicationName>N-Able</ExternalApplicationName> <SendResponseToEmail>youremail@yourdomain.com</SendResponseToEmail> <Password>the-predefined-api-password</Password> <ReturnTransactionID>data from external application (will be returned as-is in the response) </ReturnTransactionID> <DataKind>TICKET</DataKind> <RecordData> ... the transaction goes here ... </RecordData> </CommitCRMTransaction>
| Token | Comment |
|---|---|
| <?xml version="1.0" ?> | The XML version - Always 1.0 |
| <?commitcrmxml version ="1.0" ?> | The Commit API XML version - Always 1.0 |
| <CommitCRMTransaction> | Start and end transactions with this token (may have more than one in a single email) |
| <ExternalApplicationName> | The sender application name, can contain any text |
| <SendResponseToEmail> | When set with an email address, then a response email will be sent after processing this transaction by the Email Connector |
| <Password> | Optional Password - Only emails with a password that matches the password set in the Email Connector Settings will be processed (to prevent SPAM email from being processed and added to your CommitCRM database). |
| <DataKind> | What is the Entity you wish to create/update. Possible values: |
Adding new Ticket
In this sample, we add a new Ticket, and set some additional fields to it, such as Notes, Source, Due Date and Dispatcher flag.

Receiving Response
When adding or updating data via the XML API, the system can send a response (if the XML transaction specifies this in the SendResponseToEmail token). The format of the XML response is as follow:
Response in case of success:
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <?commitcrmxml version="1.0" ?> <CommitCRMResponse> <Status>SUCCESS</Status> <AffectedRecId>TKTN1NIQEYYQ8PBJMDAX</AffectedRecId> <ReturnTransactionID>data from external application (as-is)</ReturnTransactionID> </CommitCRMResponse>
Response in case of error:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<?commitcrmxml version="1.0" ?>
<CommitCRMResponse>
<Status>FAILURE</Status>
<AffectedRecId></AffectedRecId>
<ReturnTransactionID>data from external application (as-is)</ReturnTransactionID>
<ResultCodes>50109</ResultCodes>
<ResultMessage>
Fields with illegal values: Operation canceled. Field: Account has invalid data -
TKTN1NIQEYYQ8PBJMDAX
</ResultMessage>
</CommitCRMResponse>
| Token | Comment |
|---|---|
| <?xml version="1.0" ?> | The XML version - Always 1.0 |
| <?commitcrmxml version ="1.0" ?> | The Commit API XML version - Always 1.0 |
| <CommitCRMResponse> | The response starts and ends with this token |
| <Status> | The transaction status. Possible values: FAILURE, SUCCESS |
| <SendResponseToEmail> | When set with an email address, then a response email will be sent after processing this transaction by the Email Connector |
| <AffectedRecId> | The REC ID of the entity which was added or updated when processing the transaction. |
| <ResultCodes> <ResultMessage> |
In case of a failure, this will contain the error code and description. You can find more information about error codes here. |
