I am trying to call magento api using Soap from android but I am getting XMLpullparser Exception.I am using ksoap library.I seached on google but i can't find any solution.Below is my code.. 

1 import java.io.IOException;

2 import org.ksoap2.SoapEnvelope;
3 import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapObject;
4 import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapSerializationEnvelope;
5 import org.ksoap2.transport.AndroidHttpTransport;
6 import org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException;

7 import android.app.Activity;
8 import android.os.Bundle;
9 import android.util.Log;

10       public class MagentoSoapActivity extends Activity {
11         /** Called when the activity is first created. */

12      private static final String NAMESPACE = "urn:Magento";
13      private static final String Method_Name="login";
14      private static final String URL ="http://www,mymagento,com/api/soap/?wsdl=1";
15      private static final String SOAP_ACTION ="urn:Magento/login";

16 @Override
17 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
18    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
19    setContentView(R.layout.main);
20    try {
21      SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE,Method_Name);

22        request.addProperty("username", "XXX");
23        request.addProperty("apiKey", "YYY");
24        SoapSerializationEnvelope envelopes = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(
25                SoapEnvelope.VER11);

26        envelopes.dotNet = false;
27        envelopes.xsd = SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSD;
28        envelopes.enc = SoapSerializationEnvelope.ENC;


29       envelopes.setOutputSoapObject(request);

30        AndroidHttpTransport androidHttpTransport = new AndroidHttpTransport(URL);
31        androidHttpTransport.debug =true;
32        androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelopes);//Getting the Exception here
33        Object result = envelopes.getResponse();

34        Log.d("sessionId", result.toString());

35        //making call to get list of customers

36        String sessionId = result.toString();

37        request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE,"customerCustomerList");
38        request.addProperty("sessionId",sessionId );

39        envelopes.setOutputSoapObject(request);
40        androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelopes);

41        result = envelopes.getResponse();

42        Log.d("Customer List", result.toString());

43    } catch (Exception e) {
44        e.printStackTrace();
45    }
46 }
47 }

Below is stacktrace:

org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: expected: START_TAG   
{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Envelope (position:START_TAG <definitions   
name='Magento' targetNamespace='urn:Magento'>@4:50 in

Change: 

  private static final String URL ="http://indieswebs.in/demostore/api/soap/?wsdl=1";

To

  private static final String URL ="http://indieswebs.in/demostore/api/soap";

  • Thanks for the reply.I tried your solution.It is working for getting session Id but after getting session Id at line 40 in my code at where I call "customerCustomerList" at that point I got the same error that "XMlpullParser Exception" but this time I got:org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: expected: END_TAG {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Body (position:END_TAG {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}SOAP-ENV:Fault>@2:236 in java.io.InputStreamReader@44f07860) – krushnakant Jun 26 '12 at 04:06
  • Hello,If I change the method name with "resources" then it is giving me response for api v1 but for api V2 I can't get response using call method.I had read at http://mage-page.net/2012/04/magento-api-v2-soap-demystified/ that I can't use call method for api V2 and I have to use method directly but I don't understand how to use method directly.If you understand or know anything then Please give me reply.Thanks – krushnakant Jun 26 '12 at 06:58

I solved my problem.I changed the complete code and instead of using SOAP now I am using XMLRPC.There is XmLRPC library at http://code.google.com/p/android-xmlrpc/ and also the example of how to use this library.

This is the link for how to parse this response in android http://inchoo.net/mobile-development/android-development/parsing-the-xmlrpc-webservice-response-in-android/

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks everyone for your response.

  • I want to confirm that can we use the Methods that are present in the Controllers of the Magento Site??Or else we have to make this formal Calls given by the XMLRPC api...and and...can we fetch the image of the product to display in Our Android Layouts..how to fetch them and how to save them??casn you teach me this much?? – Haresh Chaudhary Jul 27 '12 at 06:03
  • I think may be you can't directly use methods present in controllers of magento site.And you can fetch images using xmlrpc http://www.magentocommerce.com/api/soap/catalog/catalog.html. There is a method catalog_product_attribute_media.list.May it helps – krushnakant Jul 27 '12 at 07:01
  • Ok..after fetching,how to Display them..i mean where to store that image and how to store them?? – Haresh Chaudhary Jul 27 '12 at 07:04
  • http://www.magentocommerce.com/api/soap/catalog/catalogProductAttributeMedia/catalog_product_attribute_media.list.html.After showing this link I think it is returning Imageurl as String and You have to store this URL.. – krushnakant Jul 27 '12 at 07:34

We've been working a lot on this kind of apps and we have just open sourced an SDK for Android and iOS to ease the connection with the Magento's APIs. Maybe it helps you with your development or give you ideas on how to resolve this issue, as we're also using ksoap for SOAP communications: http://github.com/agilemonkeys/meets-android
