Adding customer via DCO REST web service api

[DCIM_Support]

DCO 8.x supports using the Customer REST web service, when/if needed we can use this web service to add a customer. Here is a simple how to do:

https:///api/current/docs/index.html

(will be prompted to login)

and then go to "customers -> POST", enter the customer/'company' details, and then execute it by pushing the "Try it out" button:

Activating the customer can be done via web-client - as illustrated, go to Administration > Customers > ACTIVATE CUSTOMER, then select the customer that needs to be activated...

Kind regards

Hi Jef，

How many company types string can I use？ I tried INTERNAL_COMPANY, but failed.

Hi Brenda,

It works fine for me, even using a 50+ character company name.

If it is not working for you, then please post a question (in Community) with details and screen captures illustrating the issue, then I will take a look, thanks.

Kind regards

Hi Jef,

I found out the reason, there are only two company type , EXTERNAL_COMPANY and INTERNAL_DEPARTMENT.

Really useful Jef Faridi!

One thing to note is how the mapping is done between the fields:

"Department" will turn into the "Account No." field, not entirely intuitive.

Many thanks Christian,

I do agree with you that for a better user experience, it would be great to use the same word(s). I have registered a possible enhancement case for this, thanks.

Kind regards
