I want the signup form data to go to Salesforce leads table.

I have a WordPress website where i have made a signup form using php code, and whenever an user signs up, the form data goes to the Backendless users table, for this i have used the REST API and cURL. So now i want that same data to go to the Salesforce Lead table as well.. I haven't found any REST API solution to this problem and i need a code for the REST API or cURL or a plugin which could do my work and push the users data into Salesforce.

I could attach a backendless with WordPress code for reference

<?php

if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) 

    {

    //extract data from the post

    //set POST variabless

    $fname = $_POST['fname'];

    $email = $_POST['email'];

    $password = $_POST['password'];

    //retrieve the data from the backendless table and check if the email is present in it.

    $service_url1 = 'https://api.backendless.com/{APP-KEY}/{REST-API}/data/Users';

    $curl1 = curl_init($service_url1);

    curl_setopt($curl1, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

    $curl_response1 = curl_exec($curl1);

    if ($curl_response1 === false) {

        $info1 = curl_getinfo($curl1);

        curl_close($curl1);

        die('error occured during curl exec. Additioanl info: ' . var_export($info1));

    }

    curl_close($curl1);

    //getting the array which is stored in $curl_response1, putting it in decoded and puiling out only the email field and arranging it properly.

    $decoded = json_decode($curl_response1);

    $res1 = array_column($decoded, 'email');

    $res2 = implode("', '", $res1);

    //checking if the new user email is present in the array or not.

    if (in_array($email, $res1)) 

        {

            echo"<div style='text-align:center'>You have already registered before.</div>"; 

        }       

    else

        {

            //since its not present in the backendless table we will now add it to the backendless table by POST.

            $ch = curl_init('https://api.backendless.com/{APP-KEY}/{REST-API}/data/Users');

            $data = array("fname" => $fname, "email" => $email, "password" => $password);

            $data_string = json_encode($data);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data_string);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(

                'Content-Type: application/json',

                'Content-Length: ' . strlen($data_string))

            );

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);

            //execute post

            $result = curl_exec($ch);

            //close connection

            curl_close($ch);

            echo"<div style='text-align:center'>Thank you for signing up with us ".$fname.".<br> </div>";

            echo"<div style='text-align:center'>We will be sending you an email shortly.</div>";

        }

}

else

Hi!

I'm attaching this code which actually worked well for me and should work for you as well:

<?php

if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) 

    {

    //extract data from the post

    //set POST variabless

    $fname = $_POST['fname'];

    $email = $_POST['email'];

    $password = $_POST['password'];

    //retrieve the data from the backendless table and check if the email is present in it.

    $service_url1 = 'https://api.backendless.com/<App-id>/<Rest-api-key>/data/Users';

    $curl1 = curl_init($service_url1);

    curl_setopt($curl1, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

    $curl_response1 = curl_exec($curl1);

    if ($curl_response1 === false) {

        $info1 = curl_getinfo($curl1);

        curl_close($curl1);

        die('error occured during curl exec. Additioanl info: ' . var_export($info1));

    }

    curl_close($curl1);

    //getting the array which is stored in $curl_response1, putting it in decoded and pulling out only the email field and arranging it properly.

    $decoded = json_decode($curl_response1);

    $res1 = array_column($decoded, 'email');

    $res2 = implode("', '", $res1);

    //checking if the new user email is present in the array or not.

    if (in_array($email, $res1)) 

        {

            echo"<div style='text-align:center'>You have already registered before.</div>"; 

            echo '<th><strong><u><center><a target="_blank" href="javascript:window.close();">Click here to return.</a></center></u></strong></th>';        

        }       

    else

        {

            //since its not present in the backendless table we will now add it to the backendless table by POST.

            $ch = curl_init('https://api.backendless.com/<App-id>/<Rest-api-key>/data/Users');

            $data = array("fname" => $fname, "email" => $email, "password" => $password);

            $data_string = json_encode($data);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data_string);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(

                'Content-Type: application/json',

                'Content-Length: ' . strlen($data_string))

            );

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5);

            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);

            //execute post

            $result = curl_exec($ch);

            //close connection

            curl_close($ch);
