Figured it out. This works:
#!/usr/bin/python import SOAPpy wsdlFile = 'http://localhost:8080/axis/services/USD_R11_WebService?WSDL' server = SOAPpy.WSDL.Proxy(wsdlFile) server.soapproxy.config.dumpSOAPOut = 1 server.soapproxy.config.dumpSOAPIn = 1 SID = server.login('srvcdesk', 'xxxxxxxxx') attr = SOAPpy.structType() attr._addItem('string', 'userid') attr._addItem('string', 'last_name') attr._addItem('string', 'first_name') contacts = server.doSelect(SID, 'cnt', "userid = 'srvcdesk'", 1, attr) print contacts server.logout(SID) The XML generated is very similar, but my web service seems to like this for some reason...weird. icius wrote: > Hello all, > > I am trying to use a web services API with Python and SOAPpy as a > client.
