Thanks Jeff for your quick response.

I'm still trying to figure out SOAP and suds.

My request is supposed to look like this:

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance%22%3E SOAP-ENV:Body <scma:user-verified-media-request xmlns:scma="http://services.bamnetworks.com/media/types/2.0%22%3E scma:event-id164-251340-2009-03-12</scma:event-id> scma:subjectLIVE_EVENT_COVERAGE</scma:subject> </scma:user-verified-media-request> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

But instead, it comes out looking like this:

SOAP-ENV:Header/ SOAP-ENV:Body ns0:user-verified-media-request ns0:event-id ns0:event-id164-251340-2009-03-12</ns0:event-id> ns0:subjectLIVE_EVENT_COVERAGE</ns0:subject> </ns0:event-id> </ns0:user-verified-media-request> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

I have two questions.

1. I have included:

client.add_prefix('scma','http://services.bamnetworks.com/media/types/2.0') request = client.factory.create('scma:UserVerifiedMediaRequest')

and yet the request still goes out as ns0: rather than scma:

2. How come event-id and subject are wrapped within another event-id?

Should I just try going with literal xml?

Thanks, Matthew

Here's my source code so far:

import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)

from suds.client import Client

logging.getLogger('suds.client').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

url = 'http://www.mlb.com/flash/mediaplayer/v4/wsdl/MediaService.wsdl'

client = Client(url)

print client

client.add_prefix('scma','http://services.bamnetworks.com/media/types/2.0') request = client.factory.create('scma:UserVerifiedMediaRequest')

print request

request.__setitem__('event-id','164-251340-2009-03-12') request.__setitem__('subject','LIVE_EVENT_COVERAGE')

result = client.service.find(request)

print result
