Dear community, has anyone managed to get SSOAP working with the ChemSpider Web APIs, using functions which need the security token? I use SSOAP 0.9-0 from the OmegaHat repository. In the example code from SSOAP there is a sample which uses a token function. Interestingly, it checks if(!is.character(token)) first (and proceeds if the token is NOT character.) I can't test that function since I have no idea how to get the token into "non-character" form :)
My code: library(SSOAP) chemspider_sectoken <- "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" # (token was here) cs <- processWSDL("http://www.chemspider.com/Search.asmx?WSDL") # intf <- genSOAPClientInterface(,cs) # (this fails, see below. The Mass Spec API is correctly parsed. Therefore by hand:) csidlist <- .SOAP(server=cs@server, method="SimpleSearch", .soapArgs=list( query="Azithromycin", token=token ), action=I("http://www.chemspider.com/SimpleSearch"), xmlns=c("http://www.chemspider.com/") ) Fehler: Error occurred in the HTTP request: Unauthorized web service usage. Please request access to this service. ---> Unauthorized web service usage. Please request access to this service. If one looks into the request, the doc seems to be correct: <?xml version="1.0"?> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <ns:SimpleSearch xmlns:ns="http://www.chemspider.com/"> <ns:query xmlns:ns="http://www.chemspider.com/" xsi:type="xsd:string">Azithromycin</ns:query> <ns:token xmlns:ns="http://www.chemspider.com/" xsi:type="xsd:string">xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx</ns:token> </ns:SimpleSearch> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> Compared to the sample request from the ChemSpider homepage: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <soap:Body> <SimpleSearch xmlns="http://www.chemspider.com/"> <query>string</query> <token>string</token> </SimpleSearch> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> To me, both look like perfectly fine XML and should be identical to the ChemSpider XML parser. Do I need to write the token in another format? Is something else wrong? I also tried to use .literal = T to no avail: "Error occurred in the HTTP request: Empty query" Best regards, -Michael PS: the error message from the genSOAPClientInterface call is: Note: Method with signature "ClassDefinition#list" chosen for function "resolve", target signature "ExtendedClassDefinition#SchemaCollection". "SOAPType#SchemaCollection" would also be valid Fehler in makePrototypeFromClassDef(properties, ClassDef, immediate, where) : 'name' muss eine nicht-Null Zeichenkette sein Zusätzlich: Warnmeldung: undefined slot classes in definition of "ExactStructureSearchOptions": NA(class "EMatchType") [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
