Thread: Base RAW XML for DoItUsernamePwd

I need the ram xml used to an actual call to WSI. ANY call will do. This is for an iOS app so I need the full monty of raw XML here.
Thanks all.

Lots of examples here:

http://manual.aspdotnetstorefront.co...wsi-nodes.aspx

actually, I meant what wraps those calls... in otherwords, how do authenticate with WSI.
I've worked with WSI a lot in the past using their demo console app as the primer. However, I need to get to it via iOS (iPhone/iPad).
I already have an iOS app talking SOAP to a service I created on a local windows box here. But I need it to talk to WSI, preferably via the DoITUsernamePwd method as most clients with have SSL. No need for the tokens thing.

I actually need the wraper that goes around that. I think I found it though bu going to ipx.asmx in a browser:
--------
POST /ipx.asmx HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.88
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length
SOAPAction: "http://www.aspdotnetstorefront.com/DoItUsernamePwd"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<DoItUsernamePwd xmlns="http://www.aspdotnetstorefront.com/">
<AuthenticationEMail>string</AuthenticationEMail>
<AuthenticationPassword>string</AuthenticationPassword>
<XmlInputRequestString>string</XmlInputRequestString>
</DoItUsernamePwd>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
--------

My problem is now the 'InputRequestString'... I've tried sending xml like:
----
<AspDotNetStorefrontImport Version="7.1">
<GetCustomer Email="admin@aspdotnetstorefront.com"/> </AspDotNetStorefrontImport>
----
it only goes if I escape out the XML characters:
" &quot;
' &apos;
< &lt;
> &gt;
& &amp;

and it accepts it as valid into WSI, but then bombs saying the 'inputrequeststring' isn't valid... there's some trick to getting it to work here I'm not getting.

Spent a lot of time with WSI for the past year but via console apps using their canned started project. Not from scratch in iOS

I had the same issue, and you were on the right track. The key is to just escape the '>' and '<' characters. Something Like:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <DoItUsernamePwd xmlns="http://www.aspdotnetstorefront.com/">
      <AuthenticationEMail>user@email.com</AuthenticationEMail>
      <AuthenticationPassword>somepassword</AuthenticationPassword>
      <XmlInputRequestString>
	   &lt;AspDotNetStorefrontImport Version="7.1"&gt;
                &lt;GetCustomer ID="12345" /&gt;
           &lt;/AspDotNetStorefrontImport&gt;
      </XmlInputRequestString>
    </DoItUsernamePwd>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
