web3 contract TypeError: 'apply' is not a function

Question

I'm Trying to call the apply function on the contract ABI but I'm getting:

TypeError: 'apply' is not a function at :1:1

> myContract
{
  abi: [{
      constant: false,
      inputs: [{...}],
      name: "apply",
      outputs: [],
      payable: false,
      stateMutability: "nonpayable",
      type: "function"
  }, {
      constant: true,
      inputs: [{...}],
      name: "getApplicationID",
      outputs: [{...}],
      payable: false,
      stateMutability: "view",
      type: "function"
  }],
  eth: {},
  at: function(address, callback),
  getData: function(),
  new: function()
}

var abi = [{"constant": false,"inputs":[{"name": "hash","type": "bytes32"}],"name": "apply","outputs": [],"payable": false,"stateMutability": "nonpayable","type": "function"},{"constant": true,"inputs": [{"name": "email","type": "string"}],"name": "getApplicationID","outputs":[{"name": "","type": "uint256"}],"payable": false,"stateMutability": "view","type": "function"}]
var myContract = web3.eth.contract(abi,"0xcbbfbafedb0eb83016d2a96a4e80d30b20fa3e30");
 myContract.apply("4183f3a48d92d7b874e0e2dc0353e29aee0031b0a174be6f6a2e7a289e9febca");

Answer 1

This should work:

var myContract = web3.eth.contract(abi);


var myContractInstance = myContract.at("0xcbbfbafedb0eb83016d2a96a4e80d30b20fa3e30");


var result = myContractInstance.apply("4183f3a48d92d7b874e0e2dc0353e29aee0031b0a174be6f6a2e7a289e9febca");
console.log(result)
