API - read only?

[craig02445]

I would like to add a donor via the API. Is this possible or is it only for getting information from the database?

Hi @craig02445,

If you are looking to programmatically add donors to the database using GiveWP, then yes, it is possible. GiveWP provides a Donor model designed for this purpose. The Donor model represents a donor entity and offers methods for creating, updating, and retrieving donor information.

To add a new donor using the Donor model, you can utilize the create() method. This method allows you to create a new donor by providing the necessary attributes as an array. Here's an example of how you might use the donor model to create a new donor:

use Give\Donors\Models\Donor;

// Create a new donor
$attributes = [
'firstName' => 'John',
'lastName' => 'Doe'
'email' => '[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])',
// Other donor attributes...
];

$donor = Donor::create($attributes);

Yes, I am doing that now. Can I do it via REST or whatever via a url?

I see this may be a related to #6814.

If you are considering utilizing our REST API endpoints, please note that they currently support requests related to listing and deleting donors. If you need to add donors through a URL or RESTful API, you may have to implement a customized solution or custom endpoint within your WordPress installation to handle the donor creation process.
