Example 1 - Domains API

This is simple example how to use our API with the class.boxisAPI.php

/* API LOGIN DETAILS */
$email    = 'your@email.com';    // your username
$apikey   = '1234567890';        // your apikey

/* API COMMAND DETAILS */
$apitype  = 'domains';
$command  = 'register';
$params   = array(
    'returntype' => 'xml',  // xml or json
    'domain' => 'test1.com',
    'years' => 2,
    'ns' => array('203.234.12.34', '88.23.23.44'),
    'protect-privacy' => 1
);

/* PROCESS THE ACTION */
$boxisAPI = new BoxisAPIConnection($email, $apikey);
$return = $boxisAPI->call($apitype, $command, $params, $timestamp);

/* TIMESTAMP SYNCHRONIZATION (JSON EXAMPLE)
if($return['timestamperror']) {
    $timestamp = $return['timestamp'];
    $return = $boxisAPI->call($apitype, $command, $params, 'json', $timestamp);
}
*/

/* TIMESTAMP SYNCHRONIZATION (XML EXAMPLE)*/
/*
if($return->timestamperror) {
    $timestamp = $return->timestamp;
    $return = $boxisAPI->call($apitype, $command, $params, 'xml', $timestamp);
}
/*

/* RETURNED VALUE */
echo htmlspecialchars($return);

Which will output:

  1
  success

  1337942776

$apitype  = 'sms';
$command  = 'sendSMS';
$params   = array(

    $timestamp = $return->timestamp;
    $return = $boxisAPI->call($apitype, $command, $params, 'xml', $timestamp);
}
/*

/* RETURNED VALUE */
print_r($return);

Which will output:

stdClass Object ( [result] => 1 [resulttxt] => success [params] => stdClass Object ( [sms_id] => 133794570431563000005480 ) [timestamp] => 1337945704 )

Expected result

• The product behaves as described in each step (connectivity, message, or UI state).

If something goes wrong

• Repeat the step and check for typos (hostnames, passwords, ports).
• Note the exact error message or screenshot.
• Open a ticket in the Boxis client area with the service name, time of the test, and any trace (e.g. traceroute) if it is a network issue.
