Can't get a SOAP response

Hi,

I've tried using the sample C# docs along with the new 2.5 API, and the JobService class doesn't instantiate, so in an effort to get this working, I downgraded to 2.4, and I still can't get anything to work.

If you use 2.5, how do you actually submit the request? If I connect to the service and specify in Visual Studio 2010 to use the older web reference platform, I can get to the JobListService class, but it returns a SOAP mismatch error.

I've changed this code 100 times, so I apologize for it being messy, but with the following code I get "WCF error: The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly."

Here is my code. As you can see by the commented out code, I've tried 2.5 to no avail and I've tried the older version and now I get the "unexpected closed" error.

//http://test2messaging.easylink.com/soap/sync

//CSharp_Authenticate.EMsgAPI_Authenticate201101.XOA xoa = new CSharp_Authenticate.EMsgAPI_Authenticate201101.XOA();

//CSharp_Authenticate.EMsgAPI_Authenticate201101.Response response = new CSharp_Authenticate.EMsgAPI_Authenticate201101.Response();

DPJobs.joblist.XOA xoa = new DPJobs.joblist.XOA();

DPJobs.joblist.Request request = new DPJobs.joblist.Request();

DPJobs.joblist.Response response = new DPJobs.joblist.Response();

DPJobs.joblist.Authentication auth = new DPJobs.joblist.Authentication();

DPJobs.joblist.XDDSAuthType xdauth = new DPJobs.joblist.XDDSAuthType();

//DPJobs.joblist. uid = new DPJobs.joblist.UIDType();

//DPJobs.service.JobListPortTypeClient jc = new DPJobs.service.JobListPortTypeClient();

//DPJobs.joblist.JobListPortTypeClient c = new DPJobs.joblist.JobListPortTypeClient();

//DPJobs.joblist.JobListService jobservice = new DPJobs.joblist.JobListService();

//request.Authentication = auth;

//request.ReceiverKey = "http://ws.easylink.com/JobList/2011/01";

request.ReceiverKey = "http://test2messaging.easylink.com/soap/sync";

//request.

jobtype[0].MRN = lastJobNumberPolled;

jobfilter[0].StartJobId = jobtype;

jobrequest.Items = jobfilter;

//xoa.SoapVersion = System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapProtocolVersion.Default;

xoa.RequestValue = request;

xoa.ResponseValue = response;

try

{

//jc.JobList(request, jobrequest, out jobresult);

//jobservice.JobList(jobrequest);

jobresult = xoa.JobList(jobrequest);

}

The sample code will run as is if you cut and paste it into your project. The WSDL for 2.5 and 2.4 are not the same. If you have the 2.5 WSDL the 2.4 sample will not run with it. I would stay with the 2.5 WSDL and sample.

The first thing I see is missing XDN in jobtype[0].

See JobIDType in the API doc

https://apiforums.easylink.com/emapidocs/24/JobList/JobListRequest.html

The Request inforrmation is not being setup:

// Setup Reqeust information
Request.ReceiverKey = EM.Url;
Request.Authentication = EMAuthentication;
Request.ResultRequired = EMsgAPI_Demo.EMsgAPI_JobList_200810.RequiredType.yes;
Request.ResponseRequiredSpecified = true;

Let me know if you get any further.

OK, I changed my reference to the 2.5 service. What I am trying to do is import the latest jobs, so I do not have a jobid to send. I get the last imported job from the database, and then using StartJobId to get my response. Not sure if this info helps, but it seems to be the namespace I need to accomplish this.

After I switched to the 2.5 version, ResultRequired and ResponseRequiredSpecified are no longer property options, so I can't set them. That's why I was trying to go back to older versions. When I use newer versions, I'm unable to use all the properties and functions used in the service. I was using Visual Studio 2010 .NET v 4.0, and thought maybe I needed to use older versions, so I went back to .NET v3.0 and I'm still getting request errors.

This is my new code, but JobListService can't be instantiated, so I do not know how to submit the request.

Thank you for the help.

Just to add more detail:

I'm taking the example from this URL: https://apiforums.easylink.com/system/files/CS_JobList_2.5.txt

The first line in the example is what I cannot instantiate: EMsgAPI_Demo.EMsgAPI_JobList_201101.JobListService EM = new EMsgAPI_Demo.EMsgAPI_JobList_201101.JobListService();

JobListService is not listed in my list of classes.

thuneke

The snippets were for 2.4 since that was what your code was. You are right, those two are not needed. .NET version does not matter.

See attached. It shows what is missing. I also kept it basic, just executing ther JobListRequest with no parameters. Once that is working saave it. Then you can start adding to it. Much easier that way, as I have found.

I did not run it but you should be able to step through.

Where did you import the WSDL from for your Web Reference? It should have been from the 2.5 Overview doc.

https://apiforums.easylink.com/emapidocs/25/JobList/JobList.html

dentalplans

When I set up my service connection, I use http://ws.easylink.com/JobList/2011/01?WSDL

thuneke

That is correct. In your code

DpJobs2.joblist.JobListService

joblist is the folder name in your Web Reference?

dentalplans

Yes. joblist is my reference to the service.

Intellisense does not show JobListService at all.

So, just to give it a shot, I typed it in, cleaned the solution and tried to compile and it gives me the error I expected, which is:

Error 80 The type or namespace name 'JobListService' does not exist in the namespace 'DpJobs2.joblist' (are you missing an assembly reference?) c:\users\jennifermarsh\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\DPJobs2\DpJobs2\class\EasylinkReport.cs 47 29 DpJobs2

thuneke

When you type in DpJobs2 and add the . does it give you a listing of the Web Refereces?

I get that with the below wich is the name of the project.

EMsgAPI_Demo

dentalplans

Yes, I do. I use DpJobs2.joblist. and see all the classes listed but no JobListService is available. I've tried everything from the list of classes in the namespace, and I just can't instantiate it. I keep getting that it does not exist.

When I browse for it in object browser, it is not listed either.

thuneke

If you get the code I sent to do the submit you will get an "Error in Parsing" in the catch.

The code has to have at least one JobIdFilter or JobListRequestFilters. Still a good starting point though.

dentalplans

Took a screenshot. Maybe it helps. ON the left you see my reference and as you can see, the class is not available.

dentalplans

I saw the code you gave me, but the call to the JobListService class does not compile. It is in that image I posted, so you can see it.

thuneke

Try deleting the Web Reference and adding it again, use this URL, which is the same as the one you are using. Click on it first to open in your browser, JobListService is at the very bottom, just to confirm. JobListService shows in my list.

http://ws.easylink.com/JobList/2011/01?WSDL

thuneke

It needs to be added as a Web Reference, you are not showing anything there. Right click on Web Reference and select Add Web Reference.

dentalplans

Thank you very much for being patient with me. We are getting somewhere. I had to add it as a Web Reference, which now returns null for a result.

I am trying to get a list of jobs for a specific range of time. The reason is because we are trying to sync between an internal call center and the list of jobs in Easylink. So, I'm trying to poll using either the "StartJobId" using the last JobId in our database or a time/date range. Can I get a list of JobIds this way? Right now, it is returning null, and I have hard coded the test jobid that is in the test portal, and it still does not give me the job.

Thank you. Here is my code:

DpJobs2.easylinkweb.JobListService EM = new DpJobs2.easylinkweb.JobListService();

DpJobs2.easylinkweb.Request request = new DpJobs2.easylinkweb.Request();

The Domain name/XDN is test2. Change this line of code:

jobtype[0].XDN = "test2";

See what that gives you. What do you mean you get back null? You should get back something like this if there are no jobs being found.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <JobListResult xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">- <Status xmlns="http://ws.easylink.com/JobList/2011/01"> <StatusCode>0</StatusCode> <StatusMessage>OK</StatusMessage> <SubmissionTime>2012-04-24T17:44:00.402Z</SubmissionTime> <CompletionTime>2012-04-24T17:44:00.879Z</CompletionTime> </Status> </JobListResult>

dentalplans

Yes, that's what I meant. I am getting the response you listed, but no jobs are found. I've double checked the JobId in the test portal and it is correct.

dentalplans

Screenshot if it helps at all:

OK to send email to the address in your forum Profile. I want to get your user id, but not on the forum.

Sure, thuneke. No problem and thank you for helping me.

Hi there,

Just an update and maybe it will help others...

I was randomly looking at docs, and easylink has 2 different domains for testing: one for voice/fax (test2) and another for sms/email (flusme). When I set up a test, I used an email test (the voice system in the test system throws an error FYI). Well, I was using the voice system test domain for an email test. Created a test fax and the query returned a result using the test2 domain.

Thank you very much admins for all of your help.

thuneke

First, what is the error?

Yes there are two systems, as there is in Production. A little more complex than stated above. The API knows which system handles the requests, so you don't really need to worry about it. However, if you specify the wrong Domain in a request, you will get an error.
