SOAP Web Service package

Use the SOAP web service action from the SOAP Web Service package to access and exchange information between two systems in XML format.

With SOAP Web Service, you can perform these actions:

Consume SOAP web services written to provide structured data for further business processing, such as currency conversion, weather reports, and language translation.
Connect to different existing applications and different platforms, irrespective of any underlying infrastructure requirements.

The SOAP Web Service establishes complete interoperability between clients or applications and the internet, supporting XML-based open standards, such as Web Services Description Language (WSDL), Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), and Universal Description Discovery and Integration (UDDI).

Note: Windows Authentication is currently not supported for SOAP Web Service package in Automation 360.

Passing values securely

You can securely pass values from the Credential Vault to the web service by specifying the locker, credential, and attribute in the following supported action fields:

Custom headers
Operation parameters
Raw data: You must select a Credential Vault value that contains the entire parameter as the value.

Proxy support

If your device is configured with a proxy, all outbound requests from this package are routed through the proxy server. See Connect Bot Agent to a device with a proxy.
