Hi every,

I am using soapui to send AXL request. But i always get error 401. I don't know why. Could you give me some suggestion. The following is my process:

1. creat new soapui project
2. in the pop-up dialog, input :"axltest" as the project name and input "https://10.10.5.6:8443/realtimeservice/services/RisPort?wsdl" as the initial WSDL/WADL.
3.click OK, then a dialog box called "Basic Authentication"comes up, I input the Username and the password, for example "rogeryao" and "1234567". By the way, i can use the user name and passward to open https://10.10.5.6:8443/realtimeservice/services/RisPort in web browser and there is the following information:

RisPort
Hi there, this is an AXIS service!
Perhaps there will be a form for invoking the service here...

4. from the list on the left of the workspace, I double click request 1 under "ExecuteCCMSQLStatement"

5. Then I see the SOAP request like the below
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.cisco.com/ast/soap/" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<soapenv:Header>
<AstHeader xsi:type="soap:AstHeader">
<SessionId xsi:type="xsd:string">?</SessionId>
</AstHeader>
</soapenv:Header>
<soapenv:Body>
<soap:ExecuteCCMSQLStatement soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<ExecuteSQLInputData xsi:type="xsd:string">?</ExecuteSQLInputData>
<GetColumns xsi:type="soap:ArrayOfGetColumns" soapenc:arrayType="soap:ColumnType[]"/>
</soap:ExecuteCCMSQLStatement>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

6. Then I click the green arrow to submit the request to spicified endpoint URL

After these process, i always get the errror 401.

Thanks,

Roger

You didn't mention it, so you may have missed the step where you input the credentials to use to execute the request: At the bottom of the request window, click on the 'Aut' button and input your CCM user credentials. This user should have AXL API role/group (super user works fine.)

Hi David,

The problem is solved. If I did not get your message, i will take a lot of time to figure out what is going wrong. Thanks for your help! I think you have more experience in these things than others, and you are so nice to help new guys like me. Recently, I am working around CM6.1. When i encounter problems, you are the right one to get valuable information.

Thanks again!

Roger
