SOAP Client plugin
SOAP Client plugin tasks can be used as Input, Output and Action tasks, although their basic
function is to generate output. SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) is a light protocol that
defines a standard XML format used to communicate among systems across different
architectures, languages, and operating systems.
A SOAP request is an XML-based Remote Procedure Call (RPC) sent using the HTTP
transport protocol. The payload of the SOAP packet is an XML document that specifies the call
being made and the parameters being passed.
Web services, a SOAP class of applications, expose their services via the Internet in a manner
that lets other applications access them, as well as use and combine them as required.
