I understand that using a managed client object model communicated via a web service to the Server-side Object Model. But I can't find any documentation on whether this is a RESTful or SOAP service. Does anyone know of any documentation on this service architecture?
Good Question.
Take this code for example:
using (ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext(siteUrl))
{
clientContext.Credentials = getServiceAccountCredential();
SP.List invoicesList = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("Approved Invoice Allocations");
CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();
camlQuery.ViewXml = #"<View> <Query> <Where> <Eq> <FieldRef Name='Invoice_x0020_ID'/> <Value Type='Lookup'>" + invoice_id +
"</Value> </Eq> </Where> </Query> <RowLimit>1000</RowLimit> </View>";
ListItemCollection collListItems = invoicesList.GetItems(camlQuery);
clientContext.Load(collListItems);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
}
Looking at the request and response headers in Fiddler tool when clientContext.ExecuteQuery or ExecuteQueryAsync is executed, below are some observations
1) A POST request is sent to SharePoint REST service webUrl/_vti_bin/client.svc/ProcessQuery
2) Request sent is in XML format
3) Response is in JSON format

I am using the Zuora soap API. I am attempting to perform a query. I don't get any errors but the results are always null when I output the payload to log. What am I doing wrong? (the query I provide below should return 320 records, which is what I get if I execute the same query in a local non-mule test script)
This is the section of the flow.
I set the zoql query to flowVars (flowVars.query). For example : select id from Account WHERE updatedDate > '2016-06-24T23:00:00-06:00'
I use dataweave to create the xml payload (dw provided below)
I execute the query (web service consumer app xml details provided below)
DataWeave to set payload:
%dw 1.0
%output application/xml
%namespace ns0 http://api.zuora.com/
---
{
ns0#query: {
ns0#queryString: flowVars.query
}
}
Web Service Consumer app xml
<ws:consumer config-ref="ZuoraWebServiceConsumer" operation="query" doc:name="query_zuora"/>
ZuoraWebServiceConsumer config details:
<ws:consumer-config name="ZuoraWebServiceConsumer" wsdlLocation="zuora.a.49.0-sandbox.wsdl" service="ZuoraService" port="Soap" serviceAddress="https://apisandbox-api.zuora.com" doc:name="Web Service Consumer">
<ws:security>
<ws:wss-username-token username="myusername.here" password="mypassword.here" passwordType="TEXT" />

After working with MuleSoft Support, it was discovered there is a bug with the Zuora connector. When Zuora returns an invalid session error, the Zuora connector is not catching it, destroying the connection from the pool, and initiating a new connection. MuleSoft has confirmed the bug.
I'm very new to SOAP, and this is my first project. I am trying to connect to a HTTPS WSDL in order to pull some information on my webpage.
There is a certificate setup ready for both local server connect with the service provider server. There is a response when I try to connect the https webservice, so I believe there is no connection issue between both server :
Here is the SOAPUI sample given from the third party technical team :
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:soap="http://soap.ipr.tfp.com/">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<soap:create>
<arg0>
<attribute_1>abc</attribute_1>
<attribute_2></attribute_2>
<attribute_3>abc123</attribute_3>
<attribute_4>abc234</attribute_4>
<attribute_5></attribute_5>
</arg0>
</soap:create>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Below is my cfm code used to connect the Webservice :
<cfscript>
ws = CreateObject("webservice", [HTTPS URL]?wsdl);
//show web service methods for debugging purposes
writeDump(ws);
// construct arguments
args = {attribute_1="abc"
, attribute_2=""
, attribute_3="abc123"
, attribute_4="abc234"
, attribute_5=""
};
// call the method
result = ws.create(arg0=args);
writeDump(result)
</cfscript>
Issue :
I'm getting below error message when execute my cfm script :
Cannot perform web service invocation create.
The fault returned when invoking the web service operation is:

Questions :
Is this error related to the SSL certificate setup in the ColdFusion keystore?
Anything wrong with my CFM script? Refer to the SOAPUI sample, the xml format is `[arg0] --> [attribute_1], [attribute_2] and so on. Can I pass the attributes this way?
result = ws.create(arg0=args);
The same service works from SoapUI tool. Am I missing anything here?
Thank you for your time. Your help is appreciated.

The error message seems similar to cfobject tag. When I read closely in the error message, it seemed related with the X.509 ws-security encryption where the SOAP content needs to encrypted before send to the Web service request.
After did some research, the encryption flow seem work as below:
Save SOAP content into temp folder.
Used Java Class file to encrypt the SOAP content into X.509 ws-security format.
Sent new encrypted SOAP content to Webservice.
I have no idea how CF works with Java class files. Has anyone done the same encryption conversion before?
In your code to connect to web service, change
ws = CreateObject("webservice", [HTTPS URL]);
to
ws = CreateObject(
"webservice",
"[HTTPS URL]",
{wsversion="1"}
);
in case only Axis 1 works for you.
Also check at the other end, if your using ColdFusion to expose the web service make sure is set up for Axis 1.
SUM: I ended up having to form the XML manually. I also had to create an Operation and use its send(); method rather than just doing something like WebService.MyServiceFunction(); - not sure why that was the case.
I send off the request as follows:
var xm:XML =
<SetPropertiesForCurrentUser xmlns="http://asp.net/ApplicationServices/v200">
<values xmlns:d4p1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/Arrays" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<d4p1:KeyValueOfstringanyType>
<d4p1:Key>{obj.Key}</d4p1:Key>
<d4p1:Value xmlns:d6p1="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" i:type="d6p1:string">{obj.Value}</d4p1:Value>
</d4p1:KeyValueOfstringanyType>
</values>
</SetPropertiesForCurrentUser>;
var profileService:WebService = new WebService();
profileService.useProxy = false;
profileService.loadWSDL(url);
var o:Operation = profileService.SetPropertiesForCurrentUser;
o.send(xm);
Here’s my scenario:
I have ASP.NET web services to handle authentication, user roles, and user profiles (default ASP.NET AuthenticationService, RoleService, and ProfileService, to be exact).
So from my Flex web app, I am able to successfully call the ASP.NET service. For example, something like this works fine:
var profileService:WebService = new WebService();
profileService.useProxy = false;
profileService.GetAllPropertiesForCurrentUser.addEventListener("result",getAllPropertiesForCurrentUser_EventHandler);
profileService.addEventListener("fault",getAllPropertiesForCurrentUserFault_EventHandler);
profileService.loadWSDL(url);
profileService.GetAllPropertiesForCurrentUser();
I run into trouble when I need to pass a Dictionary object to another function on the service (SetPropertiesForCurrentUser). The .NET service asks for this type of value:
System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary(Of String, Object)
Here are the two pertinent entries from the web.config entry from my ASP.NET service:
<properties>
<clear/>
<add name="coordinateFormat" />
</properties>
...
<profileService enabled="true"
readAccessProperties="coordinateFormat"
writeAccessProperties="coordinateFormat"/>
So after putting together a SOAP request from a Silverlight app (which works as expected) I’ve narrowed it down to a difference in the XML request sent to the SOAP handler:
From Flex:
<tns:Value>DMS</tns:Value>
From Silverlight:
<d4p1:Value xmlns:d6p1="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" i:type="d6p1:string">DMS</d4p1:Value>
If I take the request generated by Flex, catch it with Fiddler, modify that one line to include the “type” namespace – it works.
Anyone have an idea how I can get that namespace onto my variable that is passed to the SOAP handler from Actionscript? Here is my code for sending off that SetPropertiesForCurrentUser function:
var obj:Object = {};
obj["Key"] = "coordinateFormat";
obj["Value"] = DMS;
var profileService:WebService = new WebService();
profileService.useProxy = false;
profileService.SetPropertiesForCurrentUser.addEventListener("result",setPropertiesForCurrentUser_EventHandler);
profileService.addEventListener("fault",setPropertiesForCurrentUserFault_EventHandler);
profileService.loadWSDL(url);
profileService.SetPropertiesForCurrentUser(new ArrayCollection([obj]),false);
Thanks,
Josh
The default SOAPEncoder that is used is some what limited in its capabilities (like not including the type attribute you mentioned above). Luckily, there is a way to control that by writing your own encoder.

I'm currently trying to call Amazon Product Retail Web Service in Salesforce.
As I mentioned in
Getting WSDL parse error while generating Apex code from WSDL in Salesforce
I was initially unable to generate apex stub class, but I followed the method suggested by #Ballinger and created apex class. I wrote an apex class to use that stub and to set request parameters. The class i wrote is as follows
public class AmazonProductStubNew
{
public static void getResults()
{
System.Debug(' getResults start ');
AmazonWS.AWSECommerceServicePortUS stub = new AmazonWS.AWSECommerceServicePortUS();
stub.inputHttpHeaders_x = new Map<String,String>();
stub.inputHttpHeaders_x.put('AWSAccessKeyId','MyAmazonAWSAccessKeyId');
stub.inputHttpHeaders_x.put('Timestamp','2012-11-28T12:11:30Z');
stub.inputHttpHeaders_x.put('Signature','Encrypted Secret Code');
String MarketplaceDomain = '';
String AWSAccessKeyId = 'MyAmazonAWSAccessKeyId';
String AssociateTag = '';
String XMLEscaping = '';
String Validate = '';
AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest Shared = new AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest();
Shared.SearchIndex = 'DVD';
AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest[] Request = new AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest[1];
Request[0] = new AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest();
Request[0].Title = 'Inception';
AmazonWS.ItemSearchResponse_element response = stub.ItemSearch(MarketplaceDomain,AWSAccessKeyId,AssociateTag,XMLEscaping,Validate,Shared,Request);
AmazonWS.Items_element[] localItems = response.Items;
System.Debug(localItems[0].TotalResults);
}
}
Even though I've added HTTP headers to stub, I'm not getting it in XML Request message
XML Request is as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<env:Header />
<env:Body>
<ItemSearch xmlns="http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/2011-08-01">
<MarketplaceDomain>
</MarketplaceDomain>
<AWSAccessKeyId>MyAWSAccessKeyId</AWSAccessKeyId>
<AssociateTag></AssociateTag>
<XMLEscaping></XMLEscaping>
<Validate></Validate>
<Shared><SearchIndex>DVD</SearchIndex></Shared>
<Request><Title>Inception</Title>
</Request></ItemSearch>
</env:Body></env:Envelope>
Since headers are not there in SOAP Request, There is a SOAP fault asking for Signature from Amazon Server.
As you can see, I'm new to Salesforce Apex. I followed the steps in
http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/index_Left.htm#StartTopic=Content/apex_web_services_wsdl2apex.htm#http_header_support
to set the headers.
Any idea on why the header isn't getting added?
P.S I added headers manually and tried in SOAP UI, I'm getting proper response.
Thanks :)
I think you're using wrong functions :) (question is indeed confusing).
SOAP (or generally HTTP) communication consists of sending headers and actual message (payload if you like). Headers are short text thingies, message is often a giant XML.
Your code is setting HTTP headers (which are used in web communication to authenticate, provide info about your browser, preferred languages, set cookies, return status codes like 404 page not found...) Please don't be offended with the "for dummies" but I realize the wikipedia article is a bit too much, this might be simpler: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/other/http-headers-for-dummies/
And what I suspect Amazon's webservice wants is just some fields inside the <env:Header>...</env:Header> tag? Just check the generated apex code for existence of subclass called "Header" (you can also search for the variable names like "Signature". This is going to be a total wild guess but I think you'll have to write something like that:
AmazonWS.AWSECommerceServicePortUS stub = new AmazonWS.AWSECommerceServicePortUS();
AmazonWS.Header h = new AmazonWS.Header();
h.AWSAccessKeyId = 'MyAmazonAWSAccessKeyId';
h.Timestamp = '2012-11-28T12:11:30Z';
h.Signature = 'Encrypted Secret Code';
stub.Header = h; // plug it into the request
// create and plug other required tags
AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest Shared = new AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest();
Shared.SearchIndex = 'DVD';
AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest[] Request = new AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest[1];
Request[0] = new AmazonWS.ItemSearchRequest();
Request[0].Title = 'Inception';
// ...
Now, to make it more confusing you might still have to use a HTTP header, there's a special one called SOAPAction. But generally speaking I believe you're after placing your data in the XML, not in http headers.
Funny enough, I've downloaded the Java example from http://aws.amazon.com/code/Product-Advertising-API/2478 and if I read it correctly they're passing the signature in the URL (endpoint), not in the XML. Probably because it's a REST GET method (if you can access that API it could save you a lot of hair pulled, SOAP is clunky).
I'm trying to dynamically send a SOAP request to different webservices. Each webservice has its own ID, so I just basically have to change the ID of the webservice in the URL, E.G.:
http://mywebservice.com/ID/servicedosomething
Anyway, I don't know how to do this manually. I can't reference the services because I would have to add a lot of web references into the app, which doesn't seem very good to do.
Anyway, I just want to know how to construct the SOAP request, send it, and get the result from the service. Btw, I've checked other solutions to similar questions and none worked for me, might be the WP7 framework or something.
Thanks!
From my experience, it is very easy to design and build Windows Phone applications with RESTful web services. In a situation where you only have SOAP XML web services to work with, you will need to do some work within the application to prepare the request, send it and parse the response.
You can store the webservice URL as a string "template" like so -
string wsUrlTemplate = "http://mywebservice.com/{0}/servicedosomething";
When you are about to issue a request, just format the string -
string wsUrl = string.Format(wsUrlTemplate, webServiceID);
If you have the SOAP XML request format, then store it as a template. When you need to issue the request, replace the placeholders with the actual values and send the request (with a POST option, if thats what the web services expect). A typical SOAP XML request template may look like -
string xmlRequestTemplate = "
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Customer>
<CustomerID>{0}</Customer>
</Customer>"
To prepare the request XML, you adopt the same approach as above - string format the xmlRequestTemplate and add the CustomerID. To issue the request, use HttpWebRequest to asynchronously issue the request and in the response handler, parse the XML response.
var request = HttpWebRequest.Create(wsUrl);
var result = (IAsyncResult)request.BeginGetResponse(ResponseCallback, request);
private void ResponseCallback(IAsyncResult result)
{
var request = (HttpWebRequest)result.AsyncState;
var response = request.EndGetResponse(result);
using (var stream = response.GetResponseStream())
using (var reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
var contents = reader.ReadToEnd();
// Parse the XML response
}
}
Hope this gives you some ideas to proceed.
