I'm trying to log in via webservice within vtiger CRM5 with python
When putting my key and user name in params, I just get an INVALID_AUTH_TOKEN, but when putting it into body, I get INVALID_USER_CREDENTIALS. Which seems better but not quite working !
{'success': False, 'error': {'code': 'INVALID_USER_CREDENTIALS', 'message': 'Invalid username or password'}}
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import json
import requests
from hashlib import md5
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
api_url_base = 'http://crmaddress/webservice.php'
username = 'myusername'
accessKey = 'fghdhgfhfdhgfd'
headers = {"ContentType":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"}
response = requests.get(api_url_base,params={"operation":"getChallenge","username":username})
token = json.loads(response.content.decode('utf-8'))['result']['token']
key = md5(accessKey.encode('utf-8')+token.encode('utf-8')).hexdigest()
print(key)
response = requests.post(api_url_base,data={"operation":"login","accessKey":key,"username":username,},auth=HTTPBasicAuth('myusername','mypassword'),headers=headers)
print(json.loads(response.content.decode('utf-8')))
I cannot verify without running the code, but the problem seems to be somewhere along
key = md5(accessKey.encode('utf-8')+token.encode('utf-8')).hexdigest()
Also, instead of directly using the webservice, I would recommend creating a wrapper class. Please check out a python3 wrapper I wrote at github. Let me know if this helps.
