Integrating Clarizen with 3rd Party tool

Pamela,

I've been using my login/pass to get a sessionId, and then passing that as Authorization: Session <sessionId>

Have you tried this?  It might be what you are looking for

Hi, Pamela and thanks Phil.

Where did you find the term APIid? It would help us answering as it's not a term we use.

 We call the session key returned by the Login message SessionId.  If you have a Clarizen Enterprise (and above) account, you can access the API without obtaining any sort of key from Clarizen first, just follow the API manuals as for how to issue a Login message and use the session Id returned for further operations.

Phil's comment refers to the REST API.

If you need further assistance, please share some information on your scenario, particularly the platform you intend to use, and the API type.

Hope this helps,

Ophir

Hi Ophir and Phil

I am using a web service API.  I used SOAPUI to connect to Clarizen and create a task, however, it looks like it requires an API id in order for me to do anything else.

Would you happen to have any examples of using SOAP or REST that we can use as a starting point?

Hi Pamela, 

I'll copy the reply I posted on the other post:

The SOAP API has a more complex message structure and it is recommended over the REST API if you have a SOAP library that handles messages for you, particularly if you use Microsoft.NET. 

I recommend you check the SOAP & REST API manuals (on this forum and also on chapter 16 on  http://usermanual.clarizen.com/home ). The manuals contain samples for common  task. Then choose the API that best suits the platform you use. 

Hope this helps,

Ophir
