Question

i am currently using the RestClient and cannot seem to figure out how to output the request xml and response xml for debugging and informational purpose…

I tried the solution mentioned here:

But that fails to work, any other suggestions?

Since it depends on HTTPClient, you could try enabling header and wire logging for your script.
