Setting Authorization in Node.js SOAP Client

Question

I want to access a WSDL service through SOAP Client in Node.js. I used soap node module. But I can\'t able to find any documentation to set username and pas

Answer 1

Another option to add basic authentication is using client.addHttpHeader. I tried both setSecurity and setting wsdl_headers but neither worked for me when authenticating to Cisco CUCM AXL.

Here is what worked for me:

var soap = require('soap');
var url = 'AXLAPI.wsdl';  // Download this file and xsd files from cucm admin page
var auth = "Basic " + new Buffer("your username" + ":" + "your password").toString("base64");
soap.createClient(url,function(err,client){
  client.addHttpHeader('Authorization',auth);
});
