Question

I’m trying to call a web service in an Excel Macro:

Set objHTTP = New MSXML.XMLHTTPRequest objHTTP.Open 'post', 'https://www.server.com/EIDEServer/EIDEService.asmx' objHTTP.setRequestHeader 'Content-Type', 'text/xml' objHTTP.setRequestHeader 'SOAPAction', 'PutSchedule' objHTTP.send strXML       

And I get back the following response:

  <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>   <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'>     <soap:Body>       <soap:Fault>         <faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode>         <faultstring>Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: PutSchedule.</faultstring>         <detail />       </soap:Fault>     </soap:Body>   </soap:Envelope>  

Anybody out there done something like this before?

Answer 1

You SOAP action should also include namespace of the method e.g.

'http://tempri.org/PutSchedule' 

Find out what the namespace of your Service and add it in front of the method name PutSchedule.
