Help creating an order (and other client records)

Can someone please show me an example of creating a customer order with the API?  Everything I'm trying is failing.

tevo.orders.create_customer_order(:seller_id => 782, :client_id => 2351, :payments => { :type => "offline" }, :items => { :price => "770.0", :quantity => 2, :ticket_group_id => 9354504 })

client_id, seller_id, and ticket_group_id are are valid ids I've retrieved from queries against the API.

Other examples of how to create client email_addresses, phone_numbers, and addresses would also be helpful as I can't figure that out either.  Thanks!

  Hey Brad,

  I believe the the source of your problem is incorrectly formatted params. Please make sure to format the parameters as a ruby hash which matches the sample json in the api docs (http://developer.ticketevolution.com/endpoints/orders#create_customer_order).

  Based on the docs, your code should look something more like this:

   tevo.orders.create_customer_order({:orders => [{:seller_id => 782, :client_id => 2351, :payments => [{ :type => "offline" }], :items => [{ :price => "770.0", :quantity => 2, :ticket_group_id => 9354504]})

  Please note, I have not tested this code. Please make sure your requests match the sample requests in the documentation.

  Thank you, Dan.  I'll give this a shot and report back.

  I had to remove the :orders part to make it work (below).  Thanks, Dan!   Is there a place to see these test orders online, like a broker dashboard for the sandbox?

  tevo.orders.create_customer_order({:seller_id => 782, :client_id => 2351, :payments => [{ :type => "offline" }], :items => [{ :price => "770.0", :quantity => 2, :ticket_group_id => 9354504}] })

  Excellent. I hope to start working on more robust documentation later this week and will be sure to include your findings.

  Hi Brad,

  You can review order details by logging into:

  Please shoot me an email offline if you do not have a user account for Sandbox in order to login.

  Thanks
