The VtigerCRM system provides an excellent tool that allows you to perform any operations with modules - create, edit, view, delete. Imagine a situation - you have a web service where users attach scans of documents. And you want to make sure that these documents are sent via API to VtigerCRM and attached, for example, to a contact card.
VtigerCRM provides a very convenient tool - tracking history of changes in module record. For example, you can go to the Accounts detail view and see the "Updates" tab in it. It displays the entire history that occurs with this entity - who created it, who edited it or added a comment. This tab will only be visible if the ModTracker module is activated.
In this article, I will tell you how you can modify the standard VtigerCRM API by adding the ability to display a picture or related documents attached to the module.
In this article I will try to give answers to the most frequently asked questions on how to interact with Vtiger CRM via the API in terms of retrieving, modifying or creating records. The system provides an API for third-party applications and web applications to interact with the system.
There is a small bug in the Customer Portal - when trying to download files, an error occurs, as a result of which the user receives a file of zero size. The bug is reproduced not in all cases, but only when trying to download files with incorrect syntax in the file name.
Not everyone likes the standard login window in Vtiger CRM. Especially with advertising. I want something simple, with a laconic and minimalist design. Moreover, it is very easy to do it. It is enough to edit only one file - layouts / v7 / modules / Users / Login.tpl. Below is an example of my file, which I most often use when setting up Vtiger CRM for my clients. On the screenshot for this post, you can see an example of How the authorization window looks after the edits.
Often in the process of developing APIs with Vtiger CRM, I had to deal with one very unpleasant situation - we delete any record from CRM, while related records are not deleted. They have to be removed separately through additional requests. And this makes the process of deleting all records very long and hard to implement.
There is an interesting module in vtiger called Webforms. It can generate special html forms, which you can then easely insert into your site and receive leads directly to vtiger. Forms can be integrated with various modules - leads, contacts, counterparties, deals.
Composer is the most popular package manager. And it is sorely lacking when developing in Vtiger CRM. Today I will tell you my method of connecting this package to the system.

I see how many bloggers write about how important it is to say "No" and then often see comments such as "Excellent", "It is very important to set priorities correctly." An interesting point for me is that when someone writes that he learns to say no, this means that he already knows how to say yes.
