SFA - Create Lead from Web Form - Not Logged In
I'm trying to reuse existing createLead service in Marketing component. I have an HTML web form that when submitted calls a URL that maps to an OFBiz request. But the createLead service and other services that it calls requires a login.
Here is what I have in my custom controller.xml file:
<request-map uri="webFormSubmit">
<security https="false" auth="false"/>
<event type="service" path="org.ofbiz.sfa.lead.LeadServices.xml" invoke="createLead"/>
<response name="success" type="url" value="http://www.company.com"/>
<response name="error" type="url" value="http://www.company.com"/>
</request-map>
I'm trying to accomplish this as easily as possible. So far the only thing I have created in my custom component is this request-map. No custom services. What is the best way to automatically login? Can I do it in the request-map?

Thanks for the tips. Looks like I'm about there but one last problem. I am getting a locale error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: locale cannot be null
null calling service createPartyRole in createLead calling service createLead in createLeadFromWebForm

1. for an <event type="service" the path attribute is ignored, that is
part of the service definition
2. it is typical to require a login for services, and generally
important
3. to provide alternatives to secured services just write an
alternative service, preferably that has alternate security if
applicable, and it can call existing services using the "system" user
if needed (ie that's the common pattern)

you have to pass a valid UserID that is in the partymgr, and has the
correct permissions.
Probably you have to create a java service that you html calls to do this.
