This is a discussion and working group for anyone interested in the Services module and related modules. This module was created out of a need for a standardized solution of integrating external applications with Drupal, specifically Flash and Flex applications. Visit the issues page for all bug reports. Also visit the Services Handbook for information and examples.
Machine Readable API Documentation
Hey everyone - I did a quick search and didn't find anything on d.o and g.d.o
Over in the Digital Strategy group we started talking about machine readable API listings http://groups.drupal.org/node/247253 and I was wondering if there's been any discussions or thoughts on how to do it with the Services module?
Edited: Added the right groups I forgot the first time. (Services and WSSCI)

Drupal 7 Genealogy distribution
Hey Guys and Gals,
I'm a software developer that works for a Drupal development shop, and I'm also an avid genealogy hobbyist. In addition, I develop mobile apps for iOS devices.
Read moreServices for login purpose. Browser cookies problem.
Hi, I need to be logged in multiple sites on the same domain after logging to master website. I have two websites - domain.com and child.domain.com. When I logged in to master website - domain.com - I have to be automatically logged in to child website on the same subdomain, so that I can switch to it in a browser.
Note: any existing public solutions for multisite functionality do not fit, since I have to be logged in to child websites only If I logged to master. Not backwards.
Settings:
*Site is on Drupal 7. Single code base.
Services client use case question
I have a REST API I've created, and am selling access to it. One of my clients is a mobile developer, with plans for their app to use a single user account for API communications.
Typical use case for their mobile app is proposed to be:
1) login
2) do api operations
3) logout
My question relates to steps 1 & 3 above: will that work with a single user account, and multiple mobile devices using the same user account? Will the logout by one device also logout all other "logged in" devices?

Using Drupal 7, I successfully:

Read moreanyone have an example of a remote Flash app login thru Services 3.x REST server?
I have a REST API implemented in Services 3.x. The API uses session authentication. A client wants to access the API from a remotely hosted Flash application. We've placed a crossdomain.xml in our docroot, enabling the client's app to communicate with us, but they are having troubles getting past login.
Anyone have any examples of a REST Login within Flash?
I, personally, don't know Flash...

Read moreuser.login returns HTML of home page when successful? intended or a configuration
I'm accessing the user.login service via json server from an iPad application. It appears that when it is successful, the web service returns the HTML of the home page, and when it does not, it returns a valid JSON string that provides the error message.
Is this the expected behavior? Or is it my set-up or configuration somewhere. Thanks!
Read moreUsing the REST service to create a node that includes an 'entity reference' field.
I'm using cURL in PHP to import data with a one-to-many relationship: One "Place" can be related to Many "Documents" (using the "Entity Reference" module).
The syntax I'm looking for is for the last key/value pair in this array:
$node_data = array(
'title' => $title,
'type' => 'place',
'body[und][0][value]' => $body,
'field_place_country[und][0][value]' => $field_place_country,
'field_legacy_id[und][0][value]' => $field_legacy_id,
'field_place_alt_name[und][0][value]' => 'test a',
'field_place_related_document[und][0][target_id]' => $field_place_related_document_id,
);

Using Services to integrate Drupal 7 site with custom iPhone app?
I have to integrate a Drupal 7 site with a custom iPhone app. I need to be able to be able to perform the create, retrieve, update and delete process on the Drupal site using the iPhone app.
I have 20+ content types each with multiple custom fields. So what I need to know is will I have to write my own custom solution or is the Services module able to perform most/all of the functionality for me?

When is Services not needed?
I have a requirement to have a client hit a URL with some json data, and have the site belonging to the URL accept the data and deposit it in a mongo db for later processing to update Drupal mysql data. Likewise, to have the client be able to retrieve data deposited in the mongo db.
This is D7. Looking at Services 3, I'm unclear whether I would handle this as REST (there are no standard Drupal entities being affected), RPC (though I don't see a JSON-RPC server), some other server, or not to use Services at all and just register the two url's from a module and handle it that way.

WSCCI Web Services Format Sprint Report
A small team met in Paris at the office of Commerce Guys from June 3-5th to discuss Drupal's web services serialization and syndication format needs. In short, "OK, we are going to have all of this fun new routing capability, now what do we do with it?" More specifically, how do we go about serializing Drupal data for consumption by remote programs (either other Drupal sites as in the case of content staging, other non-Drupal sites, client-side applications, or mobile apps), and what protocols and APIs do we make available to manipulate that data?
In attendance were:
- Larry Garfield, WSCCI Lead
- Wolfgang Ziegler, Entity maintainer
- Dick Olsson, Deploy maintainer
- Damien Tournoud, Core generalist and gracious host
- Alex Bronstein (via skype), Core generalist
The raw notes from the sprint are available as a Google Doc, but as usual are rather disjoint and likely won't make sense if you weren't there. A more complete report is below.

Starter Services questions D7
Hello,
I haven't really worked with services before but I do have the 20k foot view of what I want to do. So before I started I just wanted to verify a few things.
Read moreService 3 is loggin my user off when anonymous requests are made by javascript.
Drupal 6 / Services 3
Today I have successfully created my 1st services 3 retrieve API function. However I am finding that when the request is made the user is logged off.
Previously I was doing the exact same process using menu hooks returning JSON data instead of service URL's. This approach worked very well, but I wanted to make it more robust.
Here's what happens:
Login to drupal as admin.
Browse to a form that has some javascript to pull the data via api - $.getJSON(url/identifier/param.json)
Data is returned as expected.

Why module services 3.x don't work with session?
//Load xmlrpc library
require_once('XmlRPC.php');
//Define Facekard server host
$facekard_server = 'localhost';
//Define facekard api server path
$facekard_server_path = '/wsdl/test/services';
//Make connection to server
$connection = new XmlRPC($facekard_server,$facekard_server_path);
//die(print_r($connection));
//Call remote function system.connect to get session id
$system_connect = $connection->call('system.connect');
//die(print_r($system_connect));
//Fetch sessid from xml object
$session_id = $system_connect->sessid;
$pass = '123456';
