SOAP

SOAP is known as Simple Object Access Protocol. It is XML Based Protocol. Its biggest advantages is the security .Soap is basically used in enterprise application, in legacy code. It uses XML for the network call over HTTP.

Soap Envelop Structure consist of

Header

body (WSDL)

SOAP contains real XML Content  as Request and Response

XML Request

  1. <Envelop xmlns=?http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelop/?>  
  2.     <Body>  
  3.         <getCourseDetailRequest xmlns=?http://leadbycode.com/blog?>  
  4.             <id>course1</id>  
  5.         <getCourseDetailRequest>  
  6.     </Body>  
  7. </Envelop>  
 
XML Response
 
  1. <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV=?http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/?>  
  2.           <SOAP-ENV:Header />             <!?empty header–>  
  3.            <SOAP-ENV:Body>                <!?body begin–>  
  4.                   <ns2: getDetailpostResponse xmlns:ns2=?http://leadbycode.com/post> <!–content of the response–>  
  5.                    <ns2:course>  
  6.                     <ns2:id>blog</ns2:id>  
  7.                     <ns2:name>Coredata<ns2:name>  
  8.                     <ns2:description>swift</ns1:description>  
  9.                     </ns2:psot>  
  10.                     </ns2:getpostResponse>  
  11.                </SOAP-ENV:Body>       <!?body end–>  
  12. </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
