@talesmgodois I've had success with xml2js

How to handle the security here?

I'm getting a http 405 method not allowed - any idea?

@salokod maybe the server you are hitting doesn't allow POST requests? Perhaps PUTS?

allow: 'GET,OPTIONS',
'content-type': 'application/json',
'content-length': '52'
},

is part of the response, does that mean I have to use a GET command? Can I do so with this easy-soap-request?

@salokod yes, you can pass the method option like so as of version 4.1.3

 await soapRequest({ method: 'GET',  url, headers, data: <some json or xml> });

I keep getting the WSDL definition back:

















<soap:binding style='document' transport='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http'></soap:binding>

<soap:operation soapAction='https://my-server.com:8482/ws/GetJob'></soap:operation>

<soap:body use='literal'></soap:body>


<soap:body use='literal'></soap:body>





<soap:address location='https://my-server.com:8482/ws/GetJob'></soap:address>

text/xml, text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, /; q=.2

Any idea what I could be doing wrong? It's driving me nuts. I got the SOAP envelope from SOAP UI - here is the example:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:typ="http://www.northgate-is.com/proiv/webservices/types">
soapenv:Header/
soapenv:Body
typ:GetJob
<Authorization_ID>AUTHID</Authorization_ID>
</typ:GetJob>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

That's what I would expect from a GET request. You need to hit the /GetJob endpoint I suspect. But I know nothing of this API. You would need to consult the maintainer or check for API consumption documentation
