Hi There

We are using payplans successfully, and I was wondering what capabilities we have in the API to assign a plan to a user

We have a plan that is free that gets assigned to Alunmi of a course and gives them some privileges. We have a third party system with a plugin that can trigger scripts

What I would like to do is tigger PayPlans to add a user to this free plan automatically

I don't care if its API or if you can advise what class I would need to call to trigger this event but 1) is is possible and 2) whats the best way
Hello Manfred,

You need to use PayPlans API to assign free plan from another plugin. You can take reference from existing PayPlans Assign Plan app. see attached screen shot.
https://stackideas.com/docs/payplans/developers/welcome/payplans-api

In attached screen shot , you need to replace $plan_id with free plan id which you want to assign to user and $user_id with the use's id.

Let me know if you have any query.

Very useful thanks!.

Is there an INCLUDE line (payplans helper for instance) that I need to put in an external script to be able to call the payplans functions?

i.e



require_once(JPATH_SITE.'/components/com_payplans/helpers/loader.php');

Hello,

You need to include api file , that will load payplans api as well as other files.


require_once JPATH_BASE.'/components/com_payplans/includes/api.php';


Let me know if you have any query.
