Issue using Messaging API for SMS through Java

Hi,I'm trying to use Messaging API to send SMS through a test account setup by EasyLink for the purpose. Here are things I have done so far:

a. Generated client classes based on WSDL available at http://ws.easylink.com/JobSubmit/2011/01?WSDL.

b. Used a standalone java app to submit a request to http://test2messaging.easylink.com/soap/sync.

The app is generating the following request:

<S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><S:Header><Request xmlns="http://ws.easylink.com/RequestResponse/2011/01" xmlns:ns2="http://ws.easylink.com/JobSubmit/2011/01"><Authentication><XDDSAuth><RequesterID>****</RequesterID><Password>****</Password></XDDSAuth></Authentication></Request></S:Header><S:Body><ns2:JobSubmitRequest xmlns="http://ws.easylink.com/RequestResponse/2011/01" xmlns:ns2="http://ws.easylink.com/JobSubmit/2011/01"><ns2:DocumentSet/><ns2:Message><ns2:JobOptions><ns2:SmsOptions/></ns2:JobOptions><ns2:Destinations><ns2:Sms><ns2:Phone>**********</ns2:Phone></ns2:Sms></ns2:Destinations><ns2:Reports><ns2:DeliveryReport><ns2:DeliveryReportType>detail</ns2:DeliveryReportType></ns2:DeliveryReport></ns2:Reports><ns2:Contents><ns2:Part><ns2:Document><ns2:DocType>text</ns2:DocType><ns2:DocData format="text">Testing sms through EZLink</ns2:DocData></ns2:Document></ns2:Part></ns2:Contents></ns2:Message></ns2:JobSubmitRequest></S:Body></S:Envelope>

[Request ID, password and phone number values have been intentionally removed].

However, on running the app I'm getting the following error:

javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: Error in parsing
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.fault.SOAP11Fault.getProtocolException(SOAP11Fault.java:178)
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.fault.SOAPFaultBuilder.createException(SOAPFaultBuilder.java:119)
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SyncMethodHandler.invoke(SyncMethodHandler.java:108)
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SyncMethodHandler.invoke(SyncMethodHandler.java:78)
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SEIStub.invoke(SEIStub.java:107)
        at $Proxy31.jobSubmit(Unknown Source)
        at SmsSender.main(SmsSender.java:145)

My query is :

a. Does the request being generated contain enough information to be considered a 'proper' request?

b. I'm making the request through a proxy (wihtout the proxy information, the endpoint was not even reachable and was throwing a UnknownHostException earlier). How do I know if the error am getting is not due to the proxy?

Thanks,

Trishul

Your request is almost right. The only thing that's missing is the <ReceiverKey> element, which is a required part of the <Request> header.

So your request would look like this:

<S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
    <S:Header>
        <Request xmlns="http://ws.easylink.com/RequestResponse/2011/01" xmlns:ns2="http://ws.easylink.com/JobSubmit/2011/01">
            <ReceiverKey>https://test2messaging.easylink.com</ReceiverKey>
            <Authentication>
                <XDDSAuth>
                    <RequesterID>******</RequesterID>
                    <Password>******</Password>
                </XDDSAuth>
            </Authentication>
        </Request>
    </S:Header>
    <S:Body>
        <ns2:JobSubmitRequest xmlns="http://ws.easylink.com/RequestResponse/2011/01" xmlns:ns2="http://ws.easylink.com/JobSubmit/2011/01">

            <ns2:Message>
                <ns2:JobOptions>
                    <ns2:SmsOptions/>
                </ns2:JobOptions>
                <ns2:Destinations>
                    <ns2:Sms>

                    </ns2:Sms>
                </ns2:Destinations>

                    <ns2:DeliveryReport>

                            <ns2:DocType>text</ns2:DocType>
                            <ns2:DocData format="text">Testing sms through EZLink</ns2:DocData>
                        </ns2:Document>
                    </ns2:Part>
                </ns2:Contents>
            </ns2:Message>
        </ns2:JobSubmitRequest>
    </S:Body>
</S:Envelope>

It's hard to tell if your error is coming from the proxy or not, although based on my testing it appears that it probably doesn't. You might need to be able to look at proxy logs to see if the requests are getting out to the API site.

Thanks a ton! That's what was missing. You saved my job

The request goes through fine and the report also gets delivered to sender's email account. However, the message doesn't get delivered to the recipient. Is there anything else we need to do or is that some setting at EasyLink's end?

Thanks,

Can you provide the job number (XDN/MRN) for your request? With that information, we should be able to tell you what happened with your delivery.

trishulpani

The Job ID is : 01154294. Detailed report message is attached.

skamens

Thanks. For future reference, please also be sure to include the XDN that is part of the JobId (in this case, the XDN was "flusme").

There was a config issue on the test system that was preventing SMS deliveries from working properly. This issue has been fixed and I verified it with a test to my own number.

Feel free to try your test again.

Thanks. It worked.
