After spending an entire day on trying to make things work (watching tutorials, reading through wikipedia and blogs), I thought it could be a good idea to ask some experts here on stack overflow.
So I am in the following situation:
- I am trying to extract some information using an SOAP API with python
- I have access to an URL and the WSDL definition (url ends with .php)
- A PDF document which says, that when accesing the API I need to provide a NameB object with valid set of identification keys. (HOW DO I DO THIS?)
- Valid set of keys
- I have tried both the zeep library and suds.client without any success
Could somebody explain to me what I need to do in order to receive the desired data?
The WSDL definition looks something like this:
<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<s:Body xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<NameA>
<body>
<NameB>
<Guid1>GUID</Guid1>
<Guid2>GUID</Guid2>
</NameB>
<Include>1</Include>
<NumberA> Number_A </NumberA>
</body>
</NameA>
</s:Body>
</s:Envelope>
I assume that I need to enter the keys between elements Guid1 and Guid2, but HOW?
As you might read between the lines I am not an expert with python.
Thank you in advance! I am grateful for any kind of help!
Please let me know if something is unclear.
I am not a python expert but I am also using ZEEP and Python to call SOAP services.
"that when accesing the API I need to provide a NameB object with valid set of identification keys. (HOW DO I DO THIS?)"
try creating an object and pass it to the call. NameB = { 'Guid1': your_value, 'Guid2': your_value }
