Zoho CRM – API Notifications

Hello,

Using this method I’m able to insert records into Zoho CRM when users regsiter in s2member:
https://crm.zoho.com/crm/private/xml/Leads/insertRecords?authtoken=Auth Token&scope=crmapi&xmlData=Your XML Data

Now I would like to update it when users modify their profile, for doing it I need to use similar construction but with updateRecords method. The thing is for doing it I need to know Users Unique ID in Zoho CRM.

They have getRecords method to fetch users data specified in the API request.
Now my question is how can I create custom variable in s2member for each user, where I would be able to fetch and store Zoho users unique IDs ?

Thank you,
Tim

You could create a completely private Custom Registration/Profile Field that you would use to hold this value. If you set it up right, the field will never be seen by your User, but you will be able to access it in the API Notifications area with replacement codes.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields

When you have to set this value via PHP, you’ll want to get the User’s array of custom fields. This is stored in a User Meta field called s2member_custom_fields. You can get it like this:

get_user_option('s2member_custom_fields', $user_id);

See: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_user_option

Then, after you change the value of the field by changing the array value, you’ll save the array like this:

update_user_option ($user_id, 's2member_custom_fields', $fields);

Will that work for you?
