Sage One Accounting PHP Connect Login - PHP

If you're looking for a way to integrate Sage One Accounting with your PHP application, you're in the right place! In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps required to connect to the Sage One Accounting API and login using PHP.

Getting Started

To get started, you'll need to create a developer account with Sage One Accounting. You can register for a developer account here: https://developer.sage.com/signup/.

Once you have your developer account, you can create a new application and obtain your API credentials. Your credentials consist of a client ID and client secret, which you'll need to authenticate with the Sage One Accounting API.

Installing the PHP SDK

To make it easier to connect to the Sage One Accounting API, we'll be using the official PHP SDK provided by Sage. You can install the SDK using Composer by running the following command:

composer require sage/sageone-accounting-php-sdk

If you're not familiar with Composer, you can learn more about it on the official website: https://getcomposer.org/.

Authenticating with the API

To authenticate with the Sage One Accounting API, you'll need to obtain an access token using your API credentials. Here's how you can do it using the PHP SDK:

use Sage\SageOne\ClientFactory;

$clientFactory = new ClientFactory();
$client = $clientFactory->create([
    'client_id' => 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
    'client_secret' => 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET',
]);

$accessToken = $client->getAccessToken('YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD');

Replace YOUR_CLIENT_ID and YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET with your actual API credentials. You'll also need to replace YOUR_USERNAME and YOUR_PASSWORD with the login details of the user you want to authenticate with.

Making API Requests

Once you have an access token, you can start making requests to the Sage One Accounting API. Here's an example of how you can retrieve a list of customers using the PHP SDK:

use Sage\SageOne\CustomerService;

$customerService = new CustomerService($client);
$customers = $customerService->getAll();

This code creates a CustomerService instance using the $client object we created earlier, and then calls the getAll method to retrieve a list of customers. You can replace CustomerService with any other service provided by the PHP SDK to work with different resources, such as invoices or products.

Conclusion

In this guide, we've shown you how to connect to the Sage One Accounting API and login using PHP. With the PHP SDK provided by Sage, it's easy to authenticate with the API and start making requests to retrieve and manipulate your data.
