SugarCRM: Deprecated SOAP API calls?

Question

Is it true that most of the web methods available in SugarCRM's SOAP API are now deprecated and replaced by set_entry() and get_entry() ?

For example, if I want to create a new lead should I use create_lead() or should I stick to set_entry() on "Leads" instead?

Answer 1

That appears to be correct. I use get_module_fields($session_id, 'Contacts') to get the fields for whatever module I am creating or updating. Replace Contacts with whatever module you are working with.

Answer 2

Not exactly, version 5.2 has the SugarCRM SOAP v1 api and version 5.5 has version1 api and a version 2 api.

You just have to use different urls to access the api that you want in 5.5.

Answer 3

Hi, I've got 5.0 instalation, i tried the example SOAP calls from the doc site, but no cigar. Can i use another url with the depreciated calls? or is it time for an upgrade?
