2018.1

To configure a given SOAP Client plugin task in the PReS Workflow Configuration program,
you must first get its WSDL file (note that you cannot download the WSDL file over an HTTPS
connection, so you should use an HTTP connection to get the file and then switch back to a
secure connection). This lets you know which services the SOAP server provides, as well as
each service’s methods and name spaces.
If firewalls control communication between the SOAP client and the Web servers, they must be
configured so as not to block client-server communication.
In the case of "string" type data, SOAP Client plugin tasks normalize all line endings to a
single line feed character.
