Is there an interface that can convert a job number that is in my account (eg job 3000) that is used in my regular use of ServiceM8 to the job's uuid? Example case: Customer calls in by phone, supplies their job number from their online booking. I then run an AWS Lambda that calls that jobs details (requiring a uuid) from which I can pull details such as their booked time/date etc?

Hello I am using the Job REST API to try and submit a job. I am getting a response that indicates it was successfull (Status code OK response 200( However, the data is not appearing in the user interface. What am i doing wrong?

Hi there I have two questions: - First, is there an API that can create a notification or a message in the inbox? - Second, is it possible to open the Create Client(or the Create Job) wizard programatically? I have a phone system and when an operator answers a call, I would like to open this wizard with the data from the phone system. And if the client exists, the existing client information should be opened. Thanks in advance for the info.

Hi, I was just wondering if you could help provide some information about ServiceM8 and functionality of your system. I have a web dev client who currently uses ServiceM8 in their business. They have requested an eCommerce website build and have said that they area able to use ServiceM8 as a Point of Sales system for products and eCommerce. I am just wanting to find out if this in fact possible with the Service M8 system and if you have any integration with platforms such as WordPress or WooCommerce. From what I could find online there is not any documentation available referring to this so I understand this may not be something that you offer. I have also found some limited documentation on integration with Zappier and Vend, however, it didn't provide much of a solution. If you could provide any information in regards to this it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How to send contact detail for creation new job using curl

Hi We developed an API with ServiceM8 and can send data to the works description field but it doesn't handle a 'return'. If there are any returns in our data the return symbol is shown in M8 instead of a new sentence. We also tried '/n' to see if that would work but does not. It appears to be a text parsing issue on the M8 end. Any suggestions? Cheers Darren

I have reviewed Servicem8 adons, settings and features, including zapier interrogations however cannot find any function that enables the automation of a booking attached to a contact / job. I assume that the booking is an 'event' and I need to create the event to attach however even through the API documentation, I cannot seem to solve this. In addition to this, google calendar integration is one way, meaning that I can only post to google calendar, and not from. So syncing google calendar events with servicem8 is also not an option. Is there a restriction with this function? Or have I missed something? Looking forward to your support on this asap.

My API calls are taking 3-4 seconds EACH, very slow - is there a way to tell if the server hosting a site is US or Australia based? I'm thinking is the only reason it can be this slow.

Hi there, Any idea on how to create a bundle via the API This reference https://developer.servicem8.com/reference/post-materialbundle-create doesn't clearly tell you what material_list should look like. If you give it a string it throws an error: https://developer.servicem8.com/reference/post-materialbundle-create?shareId=Sw6s9HaVRgKcXpCJrQMv that it was expecting an array. So I ran it in Postman with an array, and I am closer, now I need to also set the quantity, but not having any luck with various alterations I make https://share.getlucid.solutions/SRq7fTh4rNVkThp7nQMvQ39QicXVKQwTmZleKqDNbHKpsjjosWgZA0BpRIJe69TiBthVO7uXaUJERQ4MHeRVpRSj8RpcgeFoWxES Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
