Implementing Our Service Via SOAPUI
What You’ll Need
SOAP UI allows you to quickly and easily integrate via our API.
What you will need:
1. Get SOAP UI here:
https://www.soapui.org/downloads/soapui.html
Installation Guide:
https://www.soapui.org/getting-started/installing-soapui.html
2. Credentials
Our service is accessed via credentials.
These can be checked via this URL: https://pilot.id3global.com/GlobalID/loginPage.aspx
The password will require changing on first login.
3. A Profile ID
This is available from the admin site:
Sending a SOAP Request
Step 1: Create the SOAP Project
After SoapUI has loaded click on “File”
The click “New SOAP Project”
This will load a box in the centre of the screen which needs the following filled out:
The name of the Project
The WSDL address
Click "OK"
Step 2: Calling our Main Method
This will load up the various bindings. Due to the compatibility issues with SoapUI (it cannot handle SOAP 1.2 without a workaround) you will need to use the “basic” bindings
For the purpose of this document the method that will be examined is the AuthenticateSP method.
Expand “basicHttpBinding_GlobalAuthenticate”
Double click “Request 1”
This will load a XML request for the AuthenticateSP method
Remove the irrelevant fields in the XML as ID3global will throw an error is a “?” is processed in most of the fields due to input validation
Until the request is trimmed down to the needed fields as below
Enter in the data so that there are no questions marks left.
Please note that “Version” should be entered as 0 as this will pick up the most recent version of the profile rather than this having to be changed if any changed are saved to the profile
Step 3: Setting the Credentials
7. Under “Request Properties enter Username and Password
8. Also the “WSS-Password Type” needs to be set to PasswordText
9. Once the request is complete click on the play button
Alternatively…
A SOAP header can be used instead of the credentials being entered into “Request Properties” by using the below:
Username goes here
Password goes here
Step 4: Reviewing the Results
At this stage you should have successfully made a call to the web service.
The XML response with provide a breakdown of all the item checks that have been triggered.
However, it is recommended to interpret the overall ‘Band Text’ as this has been set by the compliance team.
