can we identify type of service from URL?

I have been given a https:// URL by vendor and asked to send a cXML document to it. What I don't know is whether to use the receiver SOAP adpater or the receiver HTTP adapter. Is there some way of knowing from the URL if it is expecting a http message with XML payload or if it is expecting a SOAP message? I am guessing it must be HTTP since I was not given a WSDL to generate the message type and get the SOAPAction from. I have generated the message type from cxml.org using their DTD and converting it to XSD and importing it as external definition. Vendor has not been very responsive and is willing to verify if message is received if I am able to send one but won't say what they are expecting.

Hi,

Ask what version of SOAP they support.

If there answer is "none" then it is HTTP.

Unfurtinatelly, no...

You can't know a soap or an xml (please remember that soap is itself xml,so no chance...)

You can try both of them (do you expect any answer in case of succes/failure?)

Or you would better ask your vendor
