How to get meaningful AIF messages on Web service consumer?

Sometime on your consumer code you don’t know the cause of error and you have to dig into it by looking at exception form with in AX. Although there is a way to get all the meaningful messages at your consumer end also.

Obviously “Include exception in fault” checkbox needs to be enabled on your inbound port.

After that small piece of code (Catch) block will help you to get the meaningful messages.

catch (System.ServiceModel.FaultException<AxIntegrationServiceRefCust.AifFault> aiffaultException)
            {
                AxIntegrationServiceRefCust.InfologMessage[] list = aiffaultException.Detail.InfologMessageList;

                foreach(AxIntegrationServiceRefCust.InfologMessage message in list)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(message.Message);
                }

                return 0;
            }
