He.
I'm using mod_scorm_insert_scorm_tracks to write data to the database as a web service. Adding 27 items in the tracks array works fine, adding the 28th returns a 404. No idea why...
Investigating the source code of the function in git doesn't give a clue to why this fails.
I've added the requests (taken from Fiddler) and attached them here. Any help is greatly appreciated as this drives my crazy.

Mmm, I think I might be running into url max length limitations....

Got it. Don't know why but all of a sudden I got the POST working.

Hello everybody,
I'm writing a php client for my moodle web services using SOAP.
Right now i am able to succesfully call 'core_user_get_users' and get a correct response,
but i'm stuck trying to make 'enrol_manual_enrol_users' work.
this is the call:
$client = new \SoapClient($serverUrl);
$response = $client->__soapCall('enrol_manual_enrol_users', $params);
where $param is something like:
Array ( [enrolments] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [roleid] => 5 [userid] => 9 [courseid] => 7 ) ) )
also tried this:
Array (Array ( [0] => Array ( [roleid] => 5 [userid] => 9 [courseid] => 7 ) ) )
and few more.
$serverUrl (correct because the other method does succeed):
http://domain/webservice/soap/server.php?wsdl=1&wstoken=token
After the call, $response is just empty and nothing happens on the moodle (the user doesn't get enrolled into the course).
The weird fact is that if i pass in wrong parameters (like: wrap it into another array, mispell something etc.. etc..), moodle doesn't complain. It does complain (as it has to) only when i mispell the name of the function.
I was kinda frustrated so i gave my moodle web services user like almost full permissions: nothing changed.
Any idea?

Hi,
I am in need of a help
regarding moodle API. Is there any option to create dynamic token, when API is called everytime?
Currently i am getting the same token when i use
https://www.yourmoodle.com/login/token.php?username=USERNAME&password=PASSWORD&service=SERVICESHORTNAME
by syed shaffeque.
Use this API instead core_course_get_courses, where you can fetch all course information. the logic is like
core_course_get_courses. (API function name defines its path)
1. Core : moodle or your root folder
2. Course : course folder
3. get_courses : search for function get_courses() within the "course/externallib.php"
4. if desired fields are not fetched, the alter query (include course price , start date, end date )
5. pass the parameters in get_courses_returns()
by syed shaffeque.
Got Solution
To make dynamic API, delete the existing record in 'external_token'. Then on your each request there will be dynamic tokens inserted.

I am using core_course_get_contents I want to know the activity restriction criteria.
I am getting something like this in availability
{\"op\":\"&\",\"showc\":[true],\"c\":[{\"type\":\"completion\",\"cm\":10889,\"e\":1}]}
{\"op\":\"&\",\"showc\":[true],\"c\":[{\"type\":\"completion\",\"cm\":9989,\"e\":1}]}
{\"op\":\"&\",\"c\":[{\"type\":\"grade\",\"id\":3410,\"min\":100}
How to read this? What does this mean?
Is this always different parameters in others?
What is the common structure of availability parameter?

How to know whether the user has access to the specific course activity or not using API function.
I am using moodle version 3.2.
I am searching API function whereby passing user id and cmid it should return user can access the activity, Or not if no then, user has to complete the previous activity to access current activity, with all its completion criteria.

Anyone have any experience with the Myddleware plugin? Not sure how to use the plugin as there's no documentation. I assume Myddleware makes integration easier to setup and maintain.
by Stéphane Faure.
Hi Greg,
You can find our tutorials and documentation on this website : http://community.myddleware.com/
Here is a direct link to a tutorial, the example is a connection between Prestashop and SuiteCRM but you can follow the same type of step to learn how to use Myddleware with Moodle : http://community.myddleware.com/index.php/tutorial/
Here is the link for helping you to create the Moodle's connector : http://community.myddleware.com/index.php/connector-guide/#moodle
The Moodle plugin has been created just to add custom webservice but you can use Myddleware without this plugin if you don't need to read user's completion and last access to a course.
You can download Myddleware here : http://www.myddleware.com/solution/download
Contact us if you have any other question.
Best regards,

Great--just what I needed. What is the advantage/purpose of the Moodleby Stéphane Faure.
Hi Greg,
Myddleware allows you to transfer your data between applications like Moodle.
Could you tell us what you need and we will be abble to help you ? Thanks.

So what do I use to do that--the MW Moodle plugin, MW.com or theby Stéphane Faure.
Hi Greg,
If you want just to create data in Moodle like create users, courses... (more details here : http://www.myddleware.com/solution/connected-applications?view=project&id=14:moodle), you can only use Myddleware. No need to install the plugin.
But if you want also to read the user's completion or their last access to a course because you want to send these informationin another application, in this case, you have to install the plugin in your Moodle to install these 2 custom webservice.
I hope it is clear otherwise don't hesitate to come back to me.

In Moodle 3.2 there is no Web service API function available which can check whether the user has access to the course activity or not.
I am looking for an API function which can return the user can have access to the activity or not By passing user id and cmid.
For eg, if user has not completed with previous activity then he should not get access to the current activity based on the activity restriction criteria.

Hi,
We are using SAML to authenticate users from our adfs. We have a app that needs to create Security keys or tokens. I've seen this URL used for creating tokens. However this doesn't appear to work with saml as the password isn't stored in the database.
Is there an alternative for SAML accounts? Or a work around?
Thanks,
Shaun

Hi Jack,
you use the options parameter to make selections on id(s).
.....&wsfunction=core_course_get_courses&options[ids][0]=<course id>
Kind regards, Edwin
by Charan Sri.
Hello Edwin,
Thanks for your post.
When I tried to pass parameters like this "options[ids][0]=<course id>", I am getting an error from API.
Error: [debuginfo] => Unexpected keys (ids) detected in parameter array.
I want to retrieve all courses based on categoryid. Can you give me some syntax??
Regards
Charan
by Edwin Torn Broers.
Hi Charan,
Just tried this one on our 3.1 system (with postman) to get information on courseid 12.
https://<your-server>/webservice/rest/server.php?wstoken=<your-token>&wsfunction=core_course_get_courses&moodlewsrestformat=json&options[ids][0]=12
However this does not answer your question. This API call is probably not what you are looking for because it does not support categoryid as a selection parameter. I took a short peek at other calls and I'm not sure if what you are looking for is available.
Regards,
Edwin
