Creating cases through API

[elcongrio]

Hi Everyone:

I'm trying tu use the API to open a new case. Whenever I call it, I get the following error:

source_contact_id is not a valid integer

I have check the API browser, but I can't find any field named source_contact_id. Maybe I need to make some chained call to complete some related activities, or to assign roles.
Anyone has a working example? Open Case, Assign roles, create activities?
Thanks in advance

Source_contact_id is on the Activity, and when the case is created the OpenCase activity is added too I assume. I have not tried to add a Case yet with the API....

mmmmm... maybe I need to chain the related activities. I will give a try
Thanks
