PHP5 > Using SoapClient() to make request

Hello!
The code below describes how you make a simple SOAP-request.

The args-array is your request. Some SOAP-services seems to require that you send the request-arguments as array('arguments' => $args)

Notice I pass "array('trace' => true)" as argument to SoapClient. This allows you to type:
$client->__getLastRequest();

To see the actual request that was sent to the SOAP-serivce. Very good for debug! Takes a bit tweaking to get things perfect sometimes :-)

I've not tested the code - alas. But it shows the basics for a simple SOAP request :)

Good luck!

<?php
$client = new SoapClient("https://tools.xo.com/click2quote/services/ProductBean?wsdl", array('trace' => true));
 
$args = 
	array(
	  array('DedicatedIntAccessQuoteRequest_v3_1' =>
	     array(
			'address' =>
				array('addressLine1' => '2700 Summit avenue',
				'addressLine2' => ''),
			'contactTn' =>
				array('emailAddress' => '',
					  'firstName'    => '')
			)
		)
	);
 
$client->getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4Response($args);
?>

Awesome!  I setup it all up but I'm getting the error below on my code below:

At line number: 24 SOAP Fault: (faultcode: Client, faultstring: Function ("getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4Response") is not a valid method for this service)

<?PHP
try {
	$client = new SoapClient("https://tools.xo.com/click2quote/services/ProductBean?wsdl", array('trace' => true));
} catch (SoapFault $fault) {
	echo "<hr>At line number: ".__LINE__." SOAP Fault: (faultcode: {$fault->faultcode}, faultstring: {$fault->faultstring})"; 
	exit();
}
 
$args = array(
          array('DedicatedIntAccessQuoteRequest_v3_1' =>
             array(
             'address'   => array('addressLine1' => '2700 Summit avenue', 'addressLine2' => '', 'city'=>'Plano', 'state'=>'TX','zip'=>'75074'),
             'contactTn' => array('emailAddress' => 'sample@example.com', 'firstName' => 'Roger', 'lastName'=>'Trimble', 'workPhone'=>'','companyName'=>'C2Q Company Name','line'=>'6309','npa'=>'972','nxx'=>'578'),
             'login_v3' => array('agentId' => 'U1012', 'partnerId' => 'napttest', 'partnerPassword'=>'napttest', 'partnerRequestId'=>'','subAgentCompanyName'=>'Sub Agent 1'),
             'product' => array('circuitSpeed' => 'DS1', 'productName' => 'DEDICATED INTERNET ACCESS', 't1Multiplier'=>'1', 'state'=>'','zip'=>''),
             'purchaseOrderNumber' => array('purchaseOrderNumber' => 'PO 1234')
             )
          )
        );
 
try {
    $client->getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4Response($args);    
} catch (SoapFault $fault) {  
    echo "<hr>At line number: ".__LINE__." SOAP Fault: (faultcode: {$fault->faultcode}, faultstring: {$fault->faultstring})";
    echo '<hr><pre>';
    var_dump($client->__getLastRequest());
    echo '</pre>';
    exit();
}
 
echo '<hr><pre>';
var_dump($client->__getLastRequest());
echo '</pre>';
 
echo '<hr><pre>';
print_r($client);
echo '</pre>';
 
exit();
?>

Oh, doh.

My bad. Call ought to be "getDedicatedIntAccessQuote" without the respond behind it :)

getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4(getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4 $parameters)

Am not 100% sure about the layout of your request. But judging from the sample-request, your request seems about right!

Also a bit unsure about the initial array. try code below:

$args = array('DedicatedIntAccessQuoteRequest_v3_1' =>
             array(
             'address'   => array('addressLine1' => '2700 Summit avenue', 'addressLine2' => '', 'city'=>'Plano', 'state'=>'TX','zip'=>'75074'),
             'contactTn' => array('emailAddress' => 'sample@example.com', 'firstName' => 'Roger', 'lastName'=>'Trimble', 'workPhone'=>'','companyName'=>'C2Q Company Name','line'=>'6309','npa'=>'972','nxx'=>'578'),
             'login_v3' => array('agentId' => 'U1012', 'partnerId' => 'napttest', 'partnerPassword'=>'napttest', 'partnerRequestId'=>'','subAgentCompanyName'=>'Sub Agent 1'),
             'product' => array('circuitSpeed' => 'DS1', 'productName' => 'DEDICATED INTERNET ACCESS', 't1Multiplier'=>'1', 'state'=>'','zip'=>''),
             'purchaseOrderNumber' => array('purchaseOrderNumber' => 'PO 1234')
             )
          )

Rats.  I tried it, same error.  Seems like the error isn't indicating that the args are malformed, it seems like it's saying that we should not be calling the getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4Response() method at all!  

But it is a valid method, right?  Because we can see it declared when we show all the functions of the service with:

print_r($client->__getFunctions());

SOAP is so complicated like this - seems like we're always having to guess and guess at stuff like this.  SOAP is not intuitive.

At line number: 35 SOAP Fault: (faultcode: Client, faultstring: Function ("getDedicatedIntAccessQuote_v4Response") is not a valid method for this service)

Did you get it to work? :)

Yes, I think so - but based on response below, either we're sending a malformed request or the unsername/password we're trying to use is bad.  So we're waiting on system engineers to tell us which one it is.  So I was hoping to keep this open a bit longer - we're defiantly on the right track!

    <c2qError>
     <error>true</error>
     <errorId>20000</errorId>
     <errorMessage>The server could not authenticate the user : napttest</errorMessage>
     <requestId xsi:nil="1"/>
    </c2qError>

Cool! Good luck!
