SOAP interface
The SOAP interface provides many of the same capabilities that the GUI and CLI provide. The SOAP interface is a programmatic interface, while the GUI and CLI are nonprogrammatic.
To use the SOAP interface, you must be able to read XML schemas to create a valid XML request.
This document provides basic details only. The SOAP interface is described by the following set of
files that are in the store: directory.
- xml-mgmt.xsd
- The schema file that defines the nonprimitive management types in SOAP messages.
- xml-mgmt-base.xsd
- The schema file that defines the primitive management types in SOAP messages.
- xml-mgmt-b2b.xsd
- The schema file that defines the structure of SOAP requests that can be sent to query B2B transactional metadata.
- xml-mgmt-ops.xsd
- The schema file that defines the operations that can be sent in SOAP requests.
- xml-mgmt.wsdl
- The WSDL file that defines the services that are available through the SOAP interface.
If you submit a request without credentials, the DataPower® Gateway returns a fault instead of a response.
