I am using the Travelport Universal API in Trial mode right now. My goal is to develop a Web Portal for handling B2B requirements of a client. All is well until I came to the second last step, i.e. Creating reservation (Booking). I have tried to fill the request object with all the required parameters and data by following the sample Soap request XML attached below:Sample XML Request
Following is the request code that I wrote to include the details as described in the sample xml request.
var biPoint3 = new BillingPointOfSaleInfo { OriginApplication = Crediantels.oritionApplication };
var delevieryInfo = new DeliveryInfo
{
Email = new Email { EmailID = "test@travelport.com", Type = "Home" },
PhoneNumber = new PhoneNumber
{
CountryCode = "069",
AreaCode = "49",
Number = "261111111",
Type = PhoneNumberType.Mobile,
Location = "FRA"
},
ShippingAddress = new DeliveryInfoShippingAddress
{
City = "Como",
Country = "IT",
PostalCode = "22100",
Street = new[] { "Some Street" }
},
};
var travelerDetails = new BookingTraveler
{
Key = "0",
DOB = new DateTime(1976, 11, 18),
Gender = "M",
TravelerType = "ADT",
BookingTravelerName = new BookingTravelerName
{
First = "Frederick",
Last = "Heinrich",
Prefix = "Herr"
},
Address = new[]
{
new typeStructuredAddress
{
AddressName = "Smiths",
City = "Frankfurt",
Country = "DE",
PostalCode = "60311",
Street = new[] {"Rossmarkt 6"},
State = new State {Value = "Hesse"}
}
},
DeliveryInfo = new[]
{
new DeliveryInfo
{
Email = new Email {EmailID = "test@travelport.com", Type = "Home"},
PhoneNumber = new PhoneNumber
{
CountryCode = "069",
AreaCode = "49",
Number = "261111111",
Type = PhoneNumberType.Mobile,
Location = "FRA"
},
ShippingAddress = new DeliveryInfoShippingAddress
{
City = "Frankfurt",
Country = "DE",
PostalCode = "60311",
Street = new[] {"Rossmarkt 6"}
}
}
},
Email = new[] { new Email { Type = "Home", EmailID = "test@travelport.com" } },
PhoneNumber = new[]
{
new PhoneNumber
{
CountryCode = "069",
AreaCode = "49",
Number = "261111111",
Type = PhoneNumberType.Mobile,
Location = "FRA"
}
}
};
var reservationRequest = new AirCreateReservationReq
{
BillingPointOfSaleInfo = biPoint3,
TargetBranch = Crediantels.targetBranch,
AirPricingSolution = airPriceResponse.AirPriceResult[0].AirPricingSolution[0],
DeliveryInfo = delevieryInfo,
BookingTraveler = new[] { travelerDetails },
FormOfPayment = new[]
{
new FormOfPayment
{
Type = "Cash",
Key = "jwt2mcK1Qp27I2xfpcCtAw=="
}
},
ActionStatus = new[]
{
new ActionStatus
{
Type = ActionStatusType.TTL,
TicketDate = "2014-12-07T00:00:00",
ProviderCode = "1G",
QueueCategory = "01"
}
},
AuthorizedBy = "myself",
RetainReservation = typeRetainReservation.Both,
TraceId = "1234"
};
if (reservationRequest.AirPricingSolution.AirSegmentRef != null)
{
var airSegmentRef = reservationRequest.AirPricingSolution.AirSegmentRef[0].Key;
reservationRequest.AirPricingSolution.AirSegment = new[] { GetAirSegmentByKey(airPriceResponse, airSegmentRef) };
}
reservationRequest.AirPricingSolution.AirSegmentRef = null;
reservationRequest.AirPricingSolution.AirPricingInfo[0].PassengerType[0].BookingTravelerRef = "0";
var reservationBinding = new AirCreateReservationBinding
{
Url = Crediantels.url,
Credentials = new NetworkCredential(Crediantels.userName, Crediantels.password)
};
//SoapException on the following line
var airReservationResponse = reservationBinding.service(reservationRequest);
But when I send the request, I receive SoapException on the last line mentioned in the code above. The exception is: Ticketing application failed: CHECK FORMAT.
Usually the response always contains a clue on what is missing or what is not present in the request as per the expectation of the web service.
I have tried to add all the details in the request even if I don't require some of them, just to match the sample request but still this exception is not going away.
If I intentionally skip something that is mentioned as required in the documentation, I get an intelligible response mentioning the missing item or detail but not in the original case.
I would appreciate any thoughts which may lead me to the right direction.
