supporting UFGroup api calls via REST
August 31, 2009, 07:15:09 pm
Currently, the REST interface does not support the UFGroup or UFJoin API's because the calling function names do not get properly parsed due to the contraction of UFGroup to uf for example in civicrm_uf_profile_html_get. In addition, the version 2 API interfaces do not follow the proposed model of passing a $params array.

The attached patch to civicrm/api/v2/UFGroup.php provides a wrapper function to allow the call from civicrm/CRM/Utils/REST.php to invoke the existing v2 API. I have not tried to standardize the function name according to the proposal for 3.1, but would be happy to if I knew what it should be. For example, should uf be changed to ufgroup, and should profile_html somehow have its _ removed, eg profileHtml or profileHTML?
