Function Overview

Pandora functions are are divided into a number of types.

  • Session Level Functions – these functions are used to manage the session associated with the processing being performed.
  • Information Finding Functions – these functions are used to retrieve multi-record recordsets based on provided criteria.
  • List functions
  • Update Functions – these functions are used to create new entities within the system.
  • Utility functions – these functions provide additional general functionality to the API.

Session Level Functions

These functions are used to enable a valid session in which process can be performed and once created, determine user and related organization attributes. Unless a function is established, no functionality is available.

Function Description
Session_Login (Find) Enables Login to the instance.
session_logout(flag,callbackfunc) Enables logout of the instance.
session_islogin(flag,callbackfunc) Enables retrieving of active user information.
Session_getCurrentUser (Find) Enables retrieving the current user information.
Session_getCurrentCompany (Find) Enables retrieving the current user’s organisational information.


Information Finding Functions

These functions return record sets containing multiple records based on the filter passed to the functions. Each of these functions uses the following parameters:

  • Fields – the fields list to be retrieved and created in the recordset. Notes an ID field will be prefixed onto the user specified field list providing the unique identifier for each record.
  • Filter – the criteria by which fields should be retrieved.
  • Order – the field list to control the sort sequence of the records set.
  • Start – the starting record to be returned. The default is 0.
  • End – the end record to be returned. The default is 200.
  • Pref -
Function Description
company_find(flag,callbackfunc,fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables organisation search functions to retrieve all organisations.
contact_find(flag,callbackfunc,fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables contact search functions can retrieve all contacts.
levelone_find(flag,callbackfunc,appid,fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables access to Level 1 items.
level23_find(flag,callbackfunc,appid,level,fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables access to Level 2 items.
level23_find(flag,callbackfunc,appid,level,fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables access to Level 3 items I UTAs.
invoice_find(flag,callbackfunc,appid,fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables access to UTA invoice entities.
invoiceitem_find(flag,callbackfunc,appid,invoiceid, fields,filter,order,start,end,prefix) Enables access to UTA invoice items.
leveloneskills_find(flag,callbackfunc,objectid) Enables return of a record set of skills for Level 1 items.
skills_find(flag,callbackfunc,skilltypeid) Enables return of a record set of skill categories for Level 1 items.

Recordset Retrieval Functions

Function Description
contact_list(flag,callbackfunc,fields,filter,html,order,start,end,cfidused) Enables creation of a contact recordset.
webform_list(flag/callbackfunc,actionname,formid,scoreid,filter,order) Enables return of all webforms recordset.
company_list(flag,callbackfunc,fields,filter,html,order,start,end,cfidused) Enables return of an organisation recordset.
levelone_list(flag,callbackfunc,appid,fields,filter,html,order,start,end,cfidused) Enables return of UTA Level 1 recordset.
level23_list(flag,callbackfunc,appid,level,fields,filter,html,order,start,end,cfidused) Enables return of UTA Level 2 or 3 Recordset
