How to consume a Web Service from X++

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi community,

I connected WSDL service to AX2009. The description I found here: docs.microsoft.com/.../cc604242(v=ax.50)
In the example link above is used "WindowsLiveSearch". I didn't find a description of this component. How to consume WSDL from X++?

    To consume web service from X++ you have to connect service, look the description here: docs.microsoft.com/.../cc604242(v=ax.50) . Then in the code use, "InteropPermission" as Martin suggested(see post on this thread). Thank you! Then from X++ code to call declared namespace and all methods and classes inside this namespace and build your code.

    Yes, you must run the code on server. You also must add code access permissions: new InteropPermission(InteropKind::ClrInterop).assert().

    No, the link isn't about configuring where code will run. It's only debugging.

    Hello Martin, I a newer on web development. Thank you for correcting me. I have already done the first step and connect external Web service via reference.  I'm using a SOAP protocol to exchange.  Also I found the way to call methods. Now  I'm trying to initialise instant of this method I get errors:

    Request for the permission failed.

    Object 'CLRObject' could not be created.

    As I understand I have to execute the code on a server side. I have to configure a client and a server side using this: docs.microsoft.com/.../cc588679(v=ax.50)

    Is it the correct way to get a destination?

    Didn't you miss the first paragraph of the article? ("The first step to consuming an external Web service is to add a reference to the Web service...")

    By the way, WSDL is a language describing web services. You can use this description to generate client code for web service consumption (this is what adding a reference will do), but WSDL isn't the actual service that you'll call.
