consuming a soap service

G’day folks, I am trying to consume a soap service in iguana and couldn’t find much except the following article

Using SoapUI to help build a simple Web Service

is there a better way in iguana to consume soap services? because constructing the whole soap message in code doesn’t sound like the best idea to me or perhaps i am missing something.

hoping for some help here.

Cheers

Hello!

You can use Iguana to do an HTTP request on the SOAP service then parse the returned response. Since SOAP is XML, you can use xml.parse for further parsing.

Here is an example of how to call a webservice:

Here is the API for xml.parse:

would i not have to create a soap xml request message first? this was my original question whether there is a better way out there to consume soap services
