Want to talk SOAP without having to set up your own SOAP server? We have a demo SOAP server ready for
you to use which is running our Quotation Service - a service that gives you access to a
database of famous quotations. As for service methods, things are fairly simple: you can get a
full list of quotations, get a list of quotations by author, or you can submit a quotation to the
database.
For those of you who have gone through the Server-Side Tutorial
you will recognize the Quotation Service as the one we developed there.
For those unfamiliar with the Quotation Service, take a look at the
Quotation Service Method Signatures.
For more detail on the Quotation Service you can refer to
Section 4 of the Server-Side Tutorial.
Here is the list of currently available SOAP client(s) that you can download and run against this
SOAP server.
If you want to run your own clients against our server that is of course also possible - if you need
help, please refer to the relevant section in Client-Side SOAP.
The end point URL for the service is http://services.xmethods.net/soap/servlet/rpcrouter
