Hi Everyone,
I am trying to get some information posted using our accountancy package (FreeAgentCentral) using their API via a GEM.
http://github.com/aaronrussell/freeagent_api/
I have the following code to get it working (supposedly):
Kase Controller
def create
@kase = Kase.new(params[:kase])
@company = Company.find(params[:kase][:company_id])
@kase = @company.kases.create!(params[:kase])
respond_to do |format|
if @kase.save
UserMailer.deliver_makeakase("
[email protected]", "Highrise", @kase)
@kase.create_freeagent_project(current_user)
#flash[:notice] = 'Case was successfully created.'
flash[:notice] = fading_flash_message("Case was successfully created & sent to Highrise.", 5)
format.html { redirect_to(@kase) }
format.xml { render :xml => @kase, :status => :created, :location => @kase }
else
format.html { render :action => "new" }
format.xml { render :xml => @kase.errors, :status => :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
To save you looking through, the important part is:
@kase.create_freeagent_project(current_user)
Kase Model
# FreeAgent API Project Create
# Required attribues
# :contact_id
# :name
# :payment_term_in_days
# :billing_basis # must be 1, 7, 7.5, or 8

# :status # must be Active or Completed
def create_freeagent_project(current_user)
p = Freeagent::Project.create(
:contact_id => 0,
:name => "#{jobno} - #{highrisesubject}",
:payment_terms_in_days => 5,
:billing_basis => 1,
:budget_units => 'Hours',
:status => 'Active'
)
user = Freeagent::User.find_by_email(current_user.email)
Freeagent::Timeslip.create(
:project_id => p.id,
:user_id => user.id,
:hours => 1,
:new_task => 'Setup',

The above render the following error when trying to create a new Case and send the details to FreeAgent:
ActiveResource::ResourceNotFound in KasesController#create
Failed with 404 Not Found
and

If anyone can shed any light on this problem it would be greatly appreciated!
