Search with api using operators
October 16, 2013, 07:54:04 am
Hi!

I'm trying to find contributions with the api, i'm using sql operator("<>") to search in a custom field, is it possible?

Thanks!

Code: [Select]
$params = array(
'version' => 3,
'payment_instrument_id' => 6,
'custom_53' => array('<>', '1'),

Version CiviCRM 4.3.7

The Contribution.get api uses the BAO_Query object which doesn't follow a really consistent pattern - so that syntax works on 'some' fields (mostly ones I patched but not across the board. The api that call basic_get fn should follow that patter fairly consistently (however, they are less fully-featured).

So, in answer - if you fix that it would probably fix i for custom fields in the contact.get, contribution.get, pledge.get & some variants of membership.get.

In 4.4 the function you are looking at has been made available to the query objects (re-factored somewhat) so it would be easier to patch in 4.4.

We would certainly welcome a patch
