To use the API, you'll need a unique API Key, which is used to identify yourself to the PCR-360 server and to protect your data. API keys are assigned permissions that dictate the API access. These are available on the API Permissions page page. (Note: Do not share this unique key.)

Writing Data

The PCR-360 API allows an outside application to create or update Service, Equipment, or Service Desk items or submit SNMP traps. The basic write request is much like a read request; the URL is built in a similar fashion. Like the read requests, all API write operations are done via an HTTP(s) request (using cURL or some other method). You will need to build the URL to describe the request you are making.

...

Business logic and database integrity checks are enforced when inserting or updating data. If the required data is missing or incorrect, an error will be returned with a status of "failure" and a description of the failure. Possible failures include missing required data, incorrect or missing foreign keys, non-compliance to application business rules or logic, and Custom Validation rules.

A common error that occurs is a required field missing from the write request. It is important to keep in mind that any required user-defined fields that are created for a specific service desk type will also need to be defined when creating or updating a record.

Custom

Custom API is available starting in version 2.1.4.0
The Custom REQUEST type allows the API to invoke custom PHP logic that is saved in the application. This is very useful when interfacing with an application where you cannot control the format or data in the outbound requests. The structure of a custom request type is dependent on the identifier specified in the Custom Logic > API entry. For more information on the syntax and capabilities available in the Custom Logic > API interface, see Custom Logic Syntax.

Using cURL, this example invokes a Custom API called hello-world and the header specifies the content type is JSON encoded and requests data returned JSON encoded:

...

{
    "udf_IDENTIFIER1" : "VALUE1"
    "udf_IDENTIFIER2" : "VALUE2"
    "udf_IDENTIFIER3" : "VALUE3"
}
