Soap request body using 'postman' chrome app

Question

How would the body of a soap request look like for the \'holiday web service\' (http://www.holidaywebservice.com/HolidayService_v2/HolidayService2.asmx?wsdl) using the Postman g

Answer 1

Your request could be something like this even:

POST /HolidayService_v2/HolidayService2.asmx/GetHolidaysAvailable HTTP/1.1    
Host: www.holidaywebservice.com
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

countryCode=UnitedStates

Answer 2

Method needs to be POST and use http://www.holidaywebservice.com//HolidayService_v2/HolidayService2.asmx?wsdl as the URL.

You must include the following in the Headers:

Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

You can add SOAPAction in the headers but is not necessary for this web service request to work as the request body will specify which SOAP Method to use, 'GetHolidaysAvailable'.

SOAPAction: "http://www.holidaywebservice.com/HolidayService_v2/GetHolidaysAvailable"

Finally, the Body should look like this:

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="http://www.holidaywebservice.com/HolidayService_v2/">
 <SOAP-ENV:Body>
   <ns1:GetHolidaysAvailable>
     <ns1:countryCode>UnitedStates</ns1:countryCode>
   </ns1:GetHolidaysAvailable>
 </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
