Thanks very much Yuri,
just one precision :
if our sms provider say this :

<?php


curl --location --request POST 'https://rest.spryngsms.com/v1/messages' \ --header 'Accept: application/json' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer xxxxxx' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-raw '{ "body": "This is a test message.", "encoding": "auto", "originator": "DocsTest", "recipients": [ "31612345678" ], "route": "business", "scheduled_at": "2019-01-01T15:00:00+00:00" }'

?>

have you a sample whith this with new extension ?

Thanks in advance

[yuri]

This was possible to do before. Nothing difficult. Copy the body part and replace needed values with placeholders. Copy headers.

If you enable DEBUG mode for log, it will log what payload is sent.

Thanks Yuri ..

just try it and .. waouww
work like a charm.. but one problem for us :
mobile phoneNumber is in crm 0476121212 ..and ours provider need 32476121212 ..
we have too VoIP extension.. do you think i can use something out-of-box to manipulate phoneNumber to provider need ?

Best Regards

[yuri]

You can add Execute Formula Script action before Send HTTP Request. In that action you can manipulate with the phone number format. Set needed values into variables and then use those variables in the request body as placeholders.

Thanks Yuri,
this looks great and really makes espo even more flexible, especially when it comes to connecting the other apps together.

Given the 6.0.0 is not released yet, is there any way how to parse the json response when there is no json\response available (5.9.4)?

Thank you.

[yuri]

You can add a custom formula function https://docs.espocrm.com/development...on-in-formula/.

Here's json\retrieve from v6.0.0 https://github.com/espocrm/espocrm/b...trieveType.php. But it is not compatible with v5.9.

Thank you Yuri,
we have created our own json formula function, works well.

Thanks Yuri,
follow you recommandation and work well

just one think :
i have a job .. whith this (certainly not correct but work )

<?php 

$manager = new \Espo\Modules\Advanced\Core\Bpmn\BpmnManager($this->getContainer());
$em = $this->getEntityManager();
$flowchart = $em->getEntity('BpmnFlowchart', '5f8963ad6651b02e5');
$target = $em->getEntity('Contact', '5cec214e20cb3d7f3');
$elementId = $flowchart->get('eventStartAllIdList')[0];

$manager->startProcess($target, $flowchart, $elementId);

My goal is pass a "variable" from php job .. to the Flow and retreive int in my "http send request" ?
it's possible ?

Thanks

[yuri]

You can create a process entity and pass variables into 'variables' attribute of the process entity. Then pass that process entity into startProcess method.

I would not use BPM for such a simple task. Workflow would be enough.
