Good day,
I'm having trouble calling DSAPI methods via SOAP ( C# Integration ). I keep getting 405 Method not allowed errors. So far I've tried calling the RequestTemplate and CreateEnvelopeFromTemplates methods, both of which fail. I was able to successfully retrieve the DSAPIServiceSoapClient object and also successfully login via the login method of the credential API. If you need more information, i'm ready to provide them. Thank you.
You're succeeding with the login, which is good.
My guess is that the other calls are not well formed. Perhaps they're missing the right base url (which you receive from the login call).
Are you switching to the different base url for your subsequent calls? (Different server name?)
I suggest that you try the API logging feature and see what it reports. It enables you to see a log of your API requests. See the Request Logging article for the classic DocuSign experience, or the new DocuSign UI.
i just needed to add the in the X-DocuSign-Authentication http header whenever i try to get a DSAPIClient object.

We are developing a chatbot to handle internal and external processes for a local authority. We are trying to display contact information for a particular service from our api endpoint. The HTTP request is successful and delivers, in part, exactly what we want but there's still some unnecessary noise we can't exclude.
We specifically just want the text out of the response ("Response").
Logically, it was thought all we need to do is drill down into ${dialog.api_response.content.Response} but that fails the HTTP request and ${x.content} returns successful but includes Tags, response and the fields within 1.
Is there something simple we've missed using composer to access what we're after or do we need to change the way our endpoint is responding 2? Unfortunately the MS documentation for FrwrkComp is lacking to say the very least.
n.b. The response is currently set up as a (syntactically) SSML response, this is just a test case using an existing resource.

Snippet from FwrkComp
Turns out it was the first thing I tried just syntactically correct. For the case of the code given it was as simple as:
${dialog.api_response.content[0].Response}
I just started using Blueprism, we have a requirement to call API with OAuth 2 authentication. I'm trying to get a POC going using WebServices - Oauth 2.0 VBO to make a request like below
Request Inputs
Request Outputs
When i submit the request, i do not get any result, i see that token is populated but not the result. can anyone please point what im doing incorrectly here?
i tried directly using the HTTP VBO but no luck
I figured out what i was lacking, im unable to attach scope to the request to get the result. i also changed the way of using Web API services. i used the one from system tab and was able to attach scope for client credential auth type and use actions. once i got that i was able to get the result successfully.
If I understand correctly, a preflight OPTIONS request is sent as a way of asking "what's allowed here?". Then, once the response comes, if allowed, the calling site sends the POST request (or GET but in my case it's a post). I have figured out that, at least with Azure Function Apps, the OPTIONS request is executing the code that I expected only the POST to execute. I believe this to be the case because once I added some null checking (since the OPTIONS request doesn't have a payload in the body) everything worked fine.
I'm wondering if this is standard.
Seems to me that if I had written the API without using Azure Function Apps, I'd have the OPTIONS request sent down a path that would set the appropriate headers and return a 200 response. And the POST request would be sent down a different path that would expect a payload in the body. If that's how it usually works then that means I've just found an idiosyncrasy of the Azure functionality. But if not it means that I have something to learn about the OPTIONS preflight request.
Thanks in advance for your advice.

As sideshowbarker mentioned, the OPTIONS request is sent automatically by the browser to check if the cross-origin request can be made.
In case of Azure Functions, this will handled by the Azure when running in the cloud.
If your function is being triggered, that would mean that you have "options" as a supported method for your HTTP Trigger
In the HTTPTrigger attribute for C# functions
In functions.json for non-C# functions
If you want to customize the CORS responses and/or running functions in a container, you could always include "options" as supported and respond differently when the incoming HTTP method is OPTIONS.
Also, if you are using Azure API Management with Azure Functions, you could offload CORS handling to it instead or even use Functions Proxies as shown here.
Thanks y'all! Sorry I was unclear. And sorry it took me a while to get back. Things have been a bit crazy on this end.
Yes, the function being called is mine. And now I understand the browser doesn't have much choice as to whether or not it makes the OPTIONS call.
And yes, I could make my Azure function handle an options call differently and thanks for that suggestion too. That's sort of what I ended up doing but basically I did it by handling an empty payload. I didn't follow that best practice originally because I thought any valid request would have a payload. Accordingly, any request that did not have a payload was invalid and should be turned away as a failure of some sort. This was before I knew that the OPTIONS call was actually executing that function.
My remaining question is if I had NOT been using Azure... if I had rolled my own solution and hosted it somewhere, I'd have a class or at least methods that handle calls to this particular API. (This is something I'm new to so bear with me if my terms aren't quite right and please do correct me). So if I'd done my own API, I'd have one method to handle a POST call and a different method to handle an OPTIONS call, wouldn't I? And the method that handles the OPTIONS call would return information about what's legally do-able with this API. And the method that handles a POST call would handle the payload sent with it. And the method that handles the POST wouldn't get executed when an OPTIONS request is sent. At least that's how I figured it would work. And that's my question -- is that how it's done when not letting something like Azure handle some of the infrastructure?
I'm just trying to learn if the OPTIONS request executing a POST's function is a standard practice or if it's some kind of idiosyncrasy to working with Azure functions.
Thanks again for the advice and for helping me understand these questions.
I am very new to Salesforce and it's API.
I am having a sandbox org and with it I have url, username, password, security token and last but not the least partner.wsdl
My aim was to connect and retrieve/create data.
Technologies at hand was nodejs
So here is how I started.
I searched over the internet and came to know that I need to create a client, SOAP client in order to login, create the connection and use that connection to create and access the Leads data.So I followed this sample where the wsdl was being consumed.
So I was able to connect
I was very happy on this success and then suddenly I wasn't able to identify/find a way where I can get the sObject.I looked hard for this but no luck. So posted a question on SO
Meanwhile I also looked for other node module and found jsforce
I used jsforce starting guide and created a client that was connecting to salesforce however without using the wsdl file.
Again I was happy, even more happy because I was having the sObject with me.
Now, what is the fundamental difference if I login using the local wsdl file and without wsdl file in the language of salesforce. Which one is the correct way of logging in?
Sorry if this question is not according to SO rules or if there is a typo.
I'm the author of jsforce you mentioned.
In that lib we use REST API mostly and SOAP APIs are only used in some specific calls like login or metadata. Even in such calls we don't use WSDLs because there's no good lib to generate client modules from WSDL in JavaScript/Node.js area. Instead we wrote modules for each APIs which generate SOAP XML strings and parse the response XML.
It is enough because these API message schema are static and fiesible in the specific version, unlike SOAP API Enterprise WSDL differs in organizations. So we can hard code the client module directly w/o generate it from WSDL.
I have an action that retrieves some data from the DB and then I wanted to check that the data it have received is correct before it continues on with authentication. I am using invite codes to allow people to log into a public site that is for private corporate use only. I am able to get the data just fine, but the aftermodel is firing before the request is completed. I am making a call to an azure mobile service and the call is still in pending (according to chrome) when the aftermodel is firing off. Seems like it hasn't received the data at that point.
What is the best method to get this verification working properly? Once it verifies it would then allow them to log in with an external provider.
Please, look at this discussion: Ember authentication best practices?
If you don't need an Auth engine, then you could implement "verifying data" in beforeModel hook. Why beforeModel? Because if data is not correct, then app should redirect user to another page, and beforeModel is made for this logic: http://emberjs.com/guides/routing/preventing-and-retrying-transitions/#toc_aborting-transitions-within-code-model-code-code-beforemodel-code-code-aftermodel-code
