Various webservice questions

[jtrlho]

Hi

 

I am developing an iOS app for our jewelry shop at www.sisterunika.dk. I have figured out the structure of the XML provided at www.<sitename.com>/api but one thing is puzzling me and that's how to use the search resource.

 

Here's the search xml node from the www.<sitename.com>/api:

 

<search xlink:href="www.<sitename.com>/api/search" get="true" put="false" post="false" delete="false" head="true">
<description xlink:href="www.<sitename.com>/api/api/search" get="true" put="false" post="false" delete="false" head="true"> Search</description>
</search>

 

So I've typed in www.<sitename.com>/api/search but I get this in return:

 

<prestashop>
<errors>
 <error>
  <message>Internal error. To see this error please display the PHP errors. </message>
 </error>
</errors>
</prestashop>

 

That is strange to me because if I have a look at other nodes in the xml file located at www.<sitename.com>/api e.g. categories:

 

<categories xlink:href="http://www.<sitename.com>/api/categories" get="true" put="false" post="false" delete="false" head="false">
<description xlink:href="http://www.<sitename.com>/api/categories" get="true" put="false" post="false" delete="false" head="false"> The product categories</description>
<schema xlink:href="http://www.<sitename.com>/api/categories?schema=blank" type="blank"/>
<schema xlink:href="http://www.<sitename.com>/api/categories?schema=synopsis" type="synopsis"/>
</categories>

 

it works fine.

 

To put it short: how to use the search resource in the prestashop webservice?

 

And question number 2: Is it suggested to use https instead of http in combination with webservices? I can imagine that https is preferred because if the login key will be revealed, it will be a servere security hazard.

 

I'm running PS 1.4.3.

 

Thank you kindly in advance.
