    Hari,

    Thank you for taking an interest in using our API.

    Please make sure you have the DOLDataSDK.php file in the same folder as your php page.

    Also, we have retested the PHP sample and have confirmed it is working. However, we did notice that you are missing some parenthesis here:

    $request = new DOLDataRequest $context;

    could you please change it to:

    $request = new DOLDataRequest($context);

    Could you please review your syntax and re-run your application and let us know if you continue to have issues?
