PHP SOAPClient consuming MS Dynamics WSDL Methods behind Windows Authentication

Question

I am trying to connect to a web service which requires a windows authentication. I am writing a code in PHP and trying to call methods of MS dynamics 365 wsdl but all I get is Forbidden and 608 error code: There is insufficient account information to log you on.

I have tried the NTLMSoapClient and NuSoap classes, but when it doesn't throw a Forbidden message, it gives me NULL values of empty objects, which in the end still not getting the response from the method.

My code is similar to this

<?php 
$login = "user@dynamicsaccount.com";
$password = "password";
$url = "https://domainname.sandbox.ax.dynamics.com/pathto/soap/service/someservice?wsdl";
$arrayOpt = array(
"soap_version" => SOAP_1_1,
"cache_wsdl"   =>WSDL_CACHE_NONE,
"exceptions"   =>false,
"trace"        =>true,
'authentication'=> SOAP_AUTHENTICATION_BASIC,
'login'        =>$login,
'password'     =>$password
);

$client = new SoapClient($url, $arrayOpt);
$param = array('someParam' => "value");

print_r($client->__getFunctions()); // i get the full functions from the wsdl
$result = $client->getInfo($param); 

var_dump($result); // i get a:Forbidden [Message]=>string(55) "There is insufficient account information to log you on"


?>

Even when I use SOAPUI I get the same result

  <s:Fault>
         <faultcode xmlns:a="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2009/WebFault">a:Forbidden</faultcode>
         <faultstring xml:lang="en-US">Forbidden</faultstring>

               <InnerException i:nil="true" xmlns=""/>
               <HelpURL i:nil="true" xmlns=""/>

               <RemoteStackIndex i:type="x:int" xmlns="">0</RemoteStackIndex>
               <ExceptionMethod i:nil="true" xmlns=""/>
               <HResult i:type="x:int" xmlns="">-2147467259</HResult>
               <Source i:nil="true" xmlns=""/>
               <WatsonBuckets i:nil="true" xmlns=""/>
            </Win32Exception>
         </detail>
    </s:Fault>

I am expecting an array of strings as a response but I keep getting Forbidden and need more information. I don't know what information I need to pass to access the methods. What does Windows authentication need and how can I implement it using PHP?

So this problem got Solved by using the Dynamics integration Samples for phpApplication from this github account https://github.com/microsoft/Dynamics-AX-Integration

And after reading Microsoft documents in here I understood it needed to get an authorization token from azure AD and that token needs to be added in my curl header as Authorization: Bearer tokenString

instead of using SOAPClient I am using Curl to get into Dynamics AX in doing so I got authorized and got in. I faced anotehr issue afterwards you can find it here . And now I am facing a different issue; It seems I was able to get in with my Authorization Token Bearer Header, but I am getting:

Forbidden 1317 System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception The specified account does not exist

Which I created a different post for in case I solve it I will post my answer or if anyone already solved it .. please let me know.

Here is the link to the my new Error
