I am using phpcURL to handle the SOAP request method and I got the following response. Looks like it's little different and complex from what I have read and search on google for handling the xml response using php (simpleXML & DOM).
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soapenv:Body>

</as:QueryResultMsg>
</soapenv:Body>
If you can share me how to display following TagElements:-
1) TypeName
2) TotalAmount
3) InitialAmount
4) CreditAmount
And which one is better parser SimpleXml of Dom in this case.
You can user simplexml_load_string in PHP
you can refer this issue PHP Parsing SOAP response
After breaking my head on a wall for a whole day i just think i need some help for this.
I'm receiving the following answer from a soap call :
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body>
<SearchBrochuresResponse xmlns="http://services.iceportal.com/service">
<SearchBrochuresResult>
<pageNumber>0</pageNumber>
<brochures>
<SearchBrochure>
<iceID>10427</iceID>
<city>Acapulco</city>
</SearchBrochure>
</brochures>
</SearchBrochuresResult>
</SearchBrochuresResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
I tried all i could find on the subject on stackoverflow and all the other sources i found, but i couldn't access to the iceID, basically my goal is to get into a php variable the value of the iceID node.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Assume your xml data is in the variable $data you could create a simple XML object from it, then access it's nodes in the following way (example to get iceID):
$xml = simplexml_load_string($data);
$iceID = (string)$xml->children('soap', true)
->Body->children()
->SearchBrochuresResponse
->SearchBrochuresResult
->brochures
->SearchBrochure
->iceID;
You could look into XPath, the technique used to navigate and select parts of an XML document.
Wikipedia on XPath
If you need more help please post a more specific question. What have you tried? Do you only need to extract that specific value?
I need to send a file to a web service (ebridge) using their SendFile method. This may be too specific to their service for anyone to answer, but I thought I'd give it a try. This is the only documentation I can find regarding the SendFile method:
Purpose
This method is used to submit data for processing by ePortal.
Input parameters
Login (string) The ePortal userID.
Password (string) The ePortal password for that user.
Content (string) This is the document to be uploaded.
Filename (string) This is the name of the file with no path information.
Return Value
SendFileResult (boolean) The boolean return value represents success or failure of the submission of a document.
Here is their sample xml code for posting:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<SendFile xmlns="eBridge.WebServices">
<login>mylogin</login>
<password>mypassword</password>
<content>string</content>
<filename>string</filename>
</SendFile>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
I am also given a sample of the file (ASN.xml) that I am supposed to send. I've tried putting the xml from this file in between the content tags and just putting "test.xml" in the filename tags. That doesn't work. I know I am making a connection because if I leave it just like it is above I will get a response back, it just returns false since I didn't send anything. Perhaps I am misunderstanding what they want in content and filename? Does anyone have any ideas what I am supposed to do with this?
clarification: What I am wondering is if the xml file goes into 'content' as a string, then what is 'filename' for? Is it actually looking for a file or is this just a name that gets assigned to something later?
Ummm, are you creating a SOAPClient? That xml file is actually the body of a SOAP request and that is encapsulated by the SOAPClient class in PHP.
For the WSDL file: https://www.ebridgeservices.com/ePortalService.asmx?WSDL
Use the SOAPClient Class to build your request to their services. Use $soapReq->SendFile({args and blah here})
and if you don't like the PHP Manual: Here's an example/tutorial.
Their web page has a "live chat". Why don't you ask them?
http://www.ebridgeconnections.com/support/development-kit/API-services.html
But I believe <content> means exactly that: you're supposed to include the entire XML file - as a string - in the SOAP message.
IMHO...
I am working with the XML file string below and I've tried a number of methods to try and get access to certain parts of the XML contents. Please see the code after the XML file below for my attempt:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</Address_ListResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Code for accessing the XML content:
$xml = simplexml_load_string($result);
echo "Town: " . $xml->children('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/')->children('http://example.example.com/')->Address_ListResponse->Town;
The above code was based on a link posted by another StackOverFlow question: http://blog.preinheimer.com/index.php?/archives/172-SimpleXML,-Namespaces-Hair-loss.html
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Consider using the SOAP extension instead.
See the example in the PHP Manual on how to write a client.
An alternative would be to use Zend_Soap as a standalone component.
Turns out the answer I was looking for wasn't SimpleXML - or at least I couldn't get that to work.
What I have done is used the xml_parse_into_struct to create an array of values returned from the XML data: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.xml-parse-into-struct.php
I haven't done any xml projects, so I'm not quite sure what to do with this data...
I'm using curl to make a request to salesforce, and they give me back a response that I need to parse. I want to use simplexml. Here's part of the response:

Anyway, I expected to feed that stuff (we'll call it data) into
$results = simplexml_load_string($data);
var_dump($results);
And that would give me all the data back... and then to access specific parts, it would be $results->body->loginResponse->blah->blah...
But It's not giving me that, it's not really giving me anything back, just an empty simple xml object...
So one website made me think I might need an XSLT to read this correctly.
Or something else made me think it's because I don't have at the top.
Help!
You can use SimpleXML but it's not quite as simple as you hope due to the use of namespaces (e.g. soapenv). Look into using SimpleXMLElement::children like:
$sxe = new SimpleXMLElement($data);
$login_response = $sxe->children('soapenv', TRUE)->Body->children('', TRUE)->loginResponse->result;
// Now that we have the <loginResponse> lets take a look at an item within it
echo $login_response->userInfo->userEmail;
Finally, and importantly, have you had a look at salesforce's tools & examples?
SimpleXML needs a special treatment for namespaced XML (ref.)
Mate,
Name spaces usually require you to make a call using children to return the namespaced elements. I would recommend using a soap client like php soapclient, but since I've never used it before there is one other possible option.
$results = simplexml_load_string($data);
$xml = $results->children('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/');
var_dump($xml);
I believe that's how it works.
For what it's worth, you may find you have an easier time using a PHP SoapClient for this task. O'Reilly has a good tutorial on PHP SOAP.
Also checkout the PHP Toolkit for making SOAP calls to Salesforce.com
I try to follow the syntax by salathe. But children('soapenv', TRUE) doens't work for me, Jason's children('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/') work.
Therefore, to read the field value CreatedDate in Salesforce Outbound Message, I need following code:
$rcXML->children('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/')->Body->children('http://soap.sforce.com/2005/09/outbound')->notifications->Notification->sObject->children('urn:sobject.enterprise.soap.sforce.com')->CreatedDate
To help you understand how it work, I write a post with sames code and xml which shall be easier to understand.
http://amigotechnotes.wordpress.com/2013/11/16/parse-xml-with-namespace-by-simplexml-in-php/
Parsing soap responses with SimpleXML has a brilliant and concise example of multi-namespace XML parsing.
For anyone wanting to get at the RateResponse from the UPS Rating API, here's how :
// $client is your SoapClient object
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadXML($client->__getLastResponse());
$xml = simplexml_load_string($dom->saveXML(), NULL, NULL, 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/');
$RateResponse = $xml->xpath('/soapenv:Envelope/soapenv:Body')[0]->children('rate', true)->RateResponse;
foreach($RateResponse->RatedShipment as $RatedShipment) {
print_r((array)$RatedShipment);
}
For SAOP request, we can parse easily with a short code by replacing the SOAP-ENV: tag with blank
$response = '<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns="urn:partner.soap.sforce.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soapenv:Body>';
$response = html_entity_decode($response);
$response = str_replace(['soapenv:', 'ns1:', ':ns1', 'SOAP-ENV:'], ['', '', '', ''], $response);
$objXmlData = simplexml_load_string($response);
