CURL to custom fields in Vtiger Leads

To put it simply, I have Chronoforms sending data to Vtiger with the CURL plugin just fine. But I am using existing fields in Vtiger to CURL the data into Vtiger.

My ultimate goal would be to create a bunch of custom fields like tellusmore, book status, and any other fields I want to put in there.

I can create the fields easily and add them to the databasescheme.xml but I just don't know what to put in the fields area of the CURL plugin. Where do I add or find the field names so I can pass my custom fields to vtiger?

Thanks for any help.

Hi Mike,

I'm not sure I fuly understand the question but here goes.

If you add a new input to the ChronoForms then a new box will appear in the cURL plug-in configuration. Put the corresponding vTiger parameter name in the new box.

Opps my wording defiantly wasn't the easiest to understand. Greyhead I understand how the CURL plugin works. My problem is when I create a new leads field I have no idea of what the parameter name is. So let's say I created a field called "My field", if I put "myfield" as the parameter name in the CURL plugin and try to submit it I get an "invalid data error"

I think that explains it way better xD

Thanks for any info I have been wrestling with this issue for a while now. I just need to know where to find the parameter names for custom fields generated by Vtiger

Hi steelraptor,

Does this help (from the vTiger wiki):

1. Create a custom field, say "Loan Purpose", in the Leads module. In my forms, I'll call this "purpose".
2. Using phpmyadmin, browse to the table vtiger_leadscf.
3. Look at the custom field name for the field in question; mine was called "cf_453". This is the field name to be used in webforms.php.

Greyhead that helps massively! I guess I was just using the wrong terminology to search for my issue =p

I will take a look at it and see if I can make it happen now xD
