I am trying to add products to my shop powered by PrestaShop 1.6.0.9. Here is my code:

<?php
ini_set('display_errors',1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);
error_reporting(-1);
define('DEBUG', true);
define('_PS_DEBUG_SQL', true);
define('PS_SHOP_PATH', 'http://myshop.com');
define('PS_WS_AUTH_KEY', 'E6R9IDPK2R519WB9QAJ45MUACZ9GANC2');

require_once('PSWebServiceLibrary.php');

try {
$webService = new PrestaShopWebservice(PS_SHOP_PATH, PS_WS_AUTH_KEY, DEBUG);
$opt = array('resource' => 'products');

$xml = $webService->get(array('url' => PS_SHOP_PATH.'/api/products?schema=synopsis'));
$resources = $xml->children()->children();

unset($resources->position_in_category);
unset($resources->manufacturer_name);

$resources->price = '1000';
$resources->active = '1';
$resources->quantity = '50';
$resources->link_rewrite = 'blabla';
$resources->name->language[0][0] = 'blabla';
$resources->description->language[0][0] = '<p>blabla</p>';
$resources->description_short->language[0][0] = 'blabla';
$resources->associations = '';

$opt = array('resource' => 'products');
$opt['postXml'] = $xml->asXML();
$xml = $webService->add($opt);
}
catch (PrestaShopWebserviceException $ex) {
echo 'Other error: <br/>'.$ex->getMessage();
}
?>
But I receive this error as XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<prestashop xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
<errors>
<error>
<code><![CDATA[127]]></code>
<message><![CDATA[XML error : String could not be parsed as XML
XML length : 7891
Original XML : %3C%3Fxml+version%3D%221.0%22+encoding%3D%22UTF-8%22%3F%3E%0A%3Cprestashop+xmlns%3Axlink%3D...................
</error>
</errors>
</prestashop>

I receive **<![CDATA[XML error : String could not be parsed as XML** error for every update or insert. What can be the problem? And how can I fix this? My PrestaShop version is 1.6.0.9.

I found the bug in **PSWebServiceLibrary.php** in `public function add($options)`. The problem was with request:

$request = self::executeRequest($url, array(CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST', CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => 'xml='.urlencode($xml)));

Notice, that `CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => 'xml='.urlencode($xml)`. This sends XML as string with prepending 'xml=' string to the beginning of file and url encoding the whole XML, but PS expects XML, so it should be this way:

$request = self::executeRequest($url, array(CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST', CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $xml));

Try this Solution. It works for me

<html><head><title>Add Product</title></head><body>

if ($trace[0]['args'][0] == 404) echo 'Bad ID';

}

You can use a simpler way just using direct XML input and the product schema,
adding values directly with $vars value like <id>$myID</id> etc.
Note that I am using 2 languages in PS.

$ps_product = <<<XML

XML;

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($psXML);
$opt = array( 'resource' => 'products' );
$opt['postXml'] = $xml->asXML();
$xml = $webService->add( $opt );

I'm using this way in order to add carts directly in PS. If you don't have values for some node (you can pass data only for required fields) just use the following schema (for example id_default_image):

<id_default_image/>

instead of

<id_default_image></id_default_image>

Hope this will help you.
