Tring to add new contact using external API on whmcs

[iryaacs]

I am trying to add a new Contact to my Client on WHMCS, from a php file outside the directory.

 

Here is the code.

 

<?php


//API Connection
$url = "http://localhost:81/whmcs/includes/api.php";
$username = "admin";
$password = "password";

//Add the contact
$postfields = array();
$postfields["username"] = $username;
$postfields["password"] = md5($password);
$postfields["action"] = 'Addcontact';
$postfields["clientid"] = '1';
$postfields["firstname"] = 'Vivek';
$postfields["lastname"] = "Surendran";
$postfields["email"] = "vivek@viveksurendran.com";

$query_string = "";
foreach ($postfields AS $k=>$v) $query_string .= "$k=".urlencode($v)."&";


$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $query_string);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
$jsondata = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_error($ch)) die("Connection Error: ".curl_errno($ch).' - '.curl_error($ch));
curl_close($ch);	
$arr = json_decode($jsondata);

print_r($arr);
?>

 

It isn't getting added. Where am I getting it wrong?
