How to post SOAP Request from PHP

Question

Anyone know how can I post a SOAP Request from PHP?

Answer 1

Below is a quick example of how to do this (which best explained the matter to me) that I essentially found at this website. That website link also explains WSDL, which is important for working with SOAP services.

However, I don't think the API address they were using in the example below still works, so just switch in one of your own choosing.

$wsdl = 'http://terraservice.net/TerraService.asmx?WSDL';

$trace = true;
$exceptions = false;

$xml_array['placeName'] = 'Pomona';
$xml_array['MaxItems'] = 3;
$xml_array['imagePresence'] = true;

$client = new SoapClient($wsdl, array('trace' => $trace, 'exceptions' => $exceptions));
$response = $client->GetPlaceList($xml_array);

var_dump($response);
