==================
I get an error [Unable to connect to test.com/index.php?r=admin/remotecontrol ] with get_session_key.

↓↓↓Below is the actual PHP source code.
<?php
try {
    require_once 'application/libraries/jsonRPCClient.php';
    // instanciate a new client
    $myJSONRPCClient = new JsonRPCClient(' test.com/index.php?r=admin/remotecontrol ');
    $sessionKey = $myJSONRPCClient->get_session_key('admin', 'password');
   
    // the survey to process
    $survey_id = 837454;
    // receive all ids and info of groups belonging to a given survey
    $groups = $myJSONRPCClient->list_groups( $sessionKey, $survey_id );
    print_r($groups);
   
    // release the session key
    $myJSONRPCClient->release_session_key( $sessionKey );
   
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
?>

The URL, ID, and password are not real for security reasons.

If there are any bugs or problems, please let me know.

Did you enable it in Global settings --> Interfaces?

Did you copy the access URL given there?

As a result of copying the URL with the above settings, an error has occurred.

<?php
include_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
// instanciate a new client
$myJSONRPCClient = new \org\jsonrpcphp\JsonRPCClient(' test.com/r5/index.php?r=admin/remotecontrol ');
print_r($sessionKey);
try {
    $sessionKey = $myJSONRPCClient->get_session_key('admin', 'password');
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}

↑↑↑When I run this process, [Incorrect response id: (request id: 1)] occurs.
print_r($sessionKey); results in [NULL].

I'm struggling because I can't find the same case on the forum.
What I noticed is that the pash is [index.php?r=admin/remotecontrol'], but everyone is [index.php/admin/remotecontrol'].
 

I would like your cooperation.
 

Hi,
I do not see any issue with this:

I have a couple of questions.

① Where do you put JsonRPCClient.php?
　　When I downloaded LimeSurvey, there is a file in [...\application\libraries\jsonRPCClient.php], but [require_once 'jsonrpcphp/JsonRPCClient.php';] does 'require' it?
　　Or is it a fresh download with composer and placed in a different directory?

② I get the error [Unable to connect to {URL}] [Incorrect response id: (request id: 1)].
　　I would like some advice on how to identify the cause...

Hi,
I downloaded it from here (I do not use composer)
[url] github.com/weberhofer/jsonrpcphp [/url]
and as you see I put it into the subdirectory "jsonrpcphp" of my small and simple application.

If you compare this "original" Weberhofer file and the one included in LimeSurvey you see the only difference seems to be the definition of the namespace.
namespace org\jsonrpcphp;

It wasn't an LS issue, it was [Azure AD] authentication getting in the way.
It doesn't seem to work, so I decided to look for another way...
Thank you very much for your help!
