Send basic authorization in ballerina using wso2/soap module - soap

Question

I am using ballerina and I want to connect with WSO2 identity server for authentication.
I am not able to add Basic Authorization using wso2/soap.
Can someone provide an example?
xml body = xml `<tes:insert_employee_operation xmlns:tes="http://teste.cv">
<tes:name>{{username}}</tes:name>
<tes:age>10</tes:age>
<tes:ssn>25</tes:ssn>
</tes:insert_employee_operation>`;
soap:SoapRequest soapRequest = {
soapAction: "urn:insert_employee_operation",
payload: body
};
io:println(soapRequest);
var details = soapClient->sendReceive("/services/EmployeeService", soapRequest);
match details {
soap:SoapResponse soapResponse => {
io:println(soapResponse);
xml respostaXml = soapResponse.payload;
json respostaJson = respostaXml.toJSON({});
response.setJsonPayload(respostaJson);
_=caller->respond(response);
}
soap:SoapError soapError => io:println(soapError);
}
code

Answer 1

There are more fields available in the soap:SoapRequst object. See https://central.ballerina.io/wso2/soap#SoapRequest.
If you meant ws-security then can use as follows:
soap:SoapRequest soapRequest = {
soapAction: "urn:insert_employee_operation",
payload: body,
username: "foo",
password: "bar"
};
You can also set soap envelop headers using the headers field.

Answer 2

You can add basic authorization under the client endpoint configuration.
endpoint soap:Client soapClient {
clientConfig: {
url: "http://localhost:9000",
auth: {
scheme: http:BASIC_AUTH,
username: "is_username",
password: "is_password"
}
}
};
This will add the Authorization header into the HTTP request. The complete code will look as follows:
import ballerina/http;
import ballerina/io;
import ballerina/log;
import wso2/soap;
endpoint soap:Client soapClient {
clientConfig: {
url: "http://localhost:9000",
auth: {
scheme: http:BASIC_AUTH,
username: "is_username",
password: "is_password"
}
}
};
public function main(string... args) {
xml body = xml `<tes:insert_employee_operation xmlns:tes="http://teste.cv">
<tes:name>{{username}}</tes:name>
<tes:age>10</tes:age>
<tes:ssn>25</tes:ssn>
</tes:insert_employee_operation>`;
soap:SoapRequest soapRequest = {
soapAction: "urn:insert_employee_operation",
payload: body
};
io:println(soapRequest);
var details = soapClient->sendReceive("/services/EmployeeService", soapRequest);
match details {
soap:SoapResponse soapResponse => {
io:println(soapResponse);
xml respostaXml = soapResponse.payload;
json respostaJson = respostaXml.toJSON({});
response.setJsonPayload(respostaJson);
_ = caller->respond(response);
}
soap:SoapError soapError => io:println(soapError);
}
}
