This will be the easiest post I’ve ever written. If you are using .NET and are trying to use Drupal webservices, DON’T USE SOAP. The SOAP webservice is extremely undocumented. I tried for hours to get this to work and ran into problem after problem. (For example, the service names use periods (node.get) which won’t work in C#.) Renaming it will allow me to use the services, but the complicated cookie/session/key authentication is a mess.
I finally got the .NET project to use the service, but every time I tried to access a node it said it didn’t exist, which I am assuming has to do with permissions. I tried to use the user login method and .NET won’t understand the “struct” type.
Please oh please correct me on this if you’ve got a .NET app to successfully use the SOAP web service. Otherwise, use the slightly more documented and proven XML-RPC service.
