This is another client

Shaggy — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 13:04:12 +0000

This is another client exception - before the request is even sent off to to the service.

The getDataProvider() method is expecting an AuthHeader object - whether that is constructed by the client code by you passing connection information, or needed to be constructed and passed by you is unclear. Hopefully the documentation helps a bit more with this?

Cheers,

HI Shaggy, thanks for the

HI Shaggy, thanks for the reply.

Yes, you were correct in thinking advertiserID was that parameter I changed as you mention with no luck.
I think I am also having issues with Authentication now as it states in the error below:

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [soap:Client] System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: No credentials specified Ã sas.api.DataProviderFactory.getDataProvider(AuthHeader credentials) dans c:\smart_ws_test\v21\App_Code\Sas\api.cs:ligne 75 Ã Service.GetCampaigns(Int32 AdvertiserID) dans c:\smart_ws_test\v21\App_Code\Service.cs:ligne 248 in 'path to page:39 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: SoapClient->__call('GetCampaigns', Array) #1 'path to page(39): SoapClient->GetCampaigns(Array) #2 {main} thrown in'path to page' on line 39

I have tried creating SOAP headers for credentials with no luck:

$headerbody = array('UserName'=>$login,'Password'=>$password);//Create Soap Header.
$header = new SOAPHeader($ns, 'AuthHeader', $headerbody);
$client = new SoapClient($ns.'/v21/service.asmx?wsdl');
//set the Headers of Soap Client.
$client->__setSoapHeaders($header);
$result = $client->GetCampaigns(array('AdvertiserID'=>'655289'));
echo var_dump($result);

That's a run time error, not

That's a run time error, not an authentication error. The code believes you're missing a property: 'AdvertiserID'. I don't see you setting that property anywhere, unless this is it:

$params = array('655289');
$result = $client->GetCampaigns($params);

I have no idea what the API is like, but maybe it is expecting a hash instead?:

$result = $client->GetCampaigns(array('AdvertiserID'=>'655289'));

Cheers,

Hi Shaggy, This is my error

benf — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 12:28:11 +0000

Hi Shaggy,

This is my error now:

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [Client] SOAP-ERROR: Encoding: object hasn't 'AdvertiserID' property in 'path to page':15 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: SoapClient->__call('GetCampaigns', Array) #1 /'path to page' (15): SoapClient->GetCampaigns(Array) #2 {main} thrown in 'path to page' on line 15

and this is now my code:

$login = 'username';
$password = 'password';

$client = new SoapClient("wsdl service", array('login'=>$login,'password'=>$password));

$params = array('655289');

$result = $client->GetCampaigns($params);

print_r($result);

Still no luck

What do you mean 'is not

What do you mean 'is not authenticating'? What responses / error messages are you receiving?

Cheers,
Shaggy.

I am still having issues

benf — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:09:04 +0000

I am still having issues trying to logon to the service: See the code I have already and it is not authenticating:

$username = 'username';
$password = 'password';
$client_email = '';
$useragent = 'user agenct';
$developer_token = '';
$application_token = '';

$namespace = 'domain url';

// setup a SOAP client, and assign the authentication headers to $client
$client = new SOAPClient("service URL',array('trace' => true));
$user = new SOAPHeader($namespace, 'login', $username);
$password = new SOAPHeader($namespace, 'password', $password);
//$useragent = new SOAPHeader($namespace, 'useragent', $useragent);
//$token = new SOAPHeader($namespace, 'developerToken', $developer_token);
//$client_email = new SOAPHeader($namespace, 'clientEmail', $client_email);
$headers = array($user, $password);
$client->__setSOAPHeaders($headers);

// setup parameters to pass
//$params->advertiserID = 65598;

try {
// make the call to the API
$variations = $client->getCampaigns(65598);
} catch (SOAPFault $exception) {
var_dump($client->__getLastRequest());
var_dump($client->__getLastRequestHeaders());
var_dump($exception);
exit;
}

// again, normally we'd do something useful here
echo '

';
print_r($variations);
echo '

Simple Object Access Protocol

Simple Object Access Protocol is a cross-language method of exchanging data. I used it quite a bit when I was working with weather data from the NWS.

PHP has a native library that you can use, and there is another method I've used called nuSOAP.

Basically you form an XML request and send it to the SOAP server, and they send you an XML response. The SOAP protocol defines how the XML is formed in the request and response. It's all over HTTP/HTTPS.
