Answer 1

Do you have any docs on the new WDDL's coming out? How do we get a developer key?

Answer 2

There's no new WSDL coming out this year...

To get a developer key you will need to contact your Microsoft rep, as this program is by invitation only.

Answer 3

The links to the following are "Production WSDLs: V4 (released 4/28/2007)" are showing visited but I have not clicked on them yet.  My reason for asking is that I need to verify that the "V4" links are in fact a new version and not V3. 

 

Regards,

Ed

Answer 4

Hi Ed,

 

The V4 WSDLS are new. The visual indication that they have been viewed before possibly could be a formatting error.

Answer 9

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to post this (I think it is).

Can I access the acount status from the WSDL i.e. any problems with the account?

I then want to use SMS to forward this info to my mobile.

Thanks for your help

Adam

Answer 10

For future reference -- mixed case for these services (v5 versus V5) is confusing for us all.

It's really not that confusing for 'us all'; I for one am not confused.

Hi,

Is V5.1 sandbox WSDL for Campaign Management Service still working? Were getting an SOAP Error when parsing the WSDL.

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [WSDL] SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't find <definitions> in 'https://sandboxapi.adcenter.microsoft.com/Api/Advertiser/V5.1/CampaignManagement/CampaignManagementService.svc?wsdl'

The rest of the V5.1 sandbox services are working.
Please let us know what to do, because we need it in our daily testing.

Thanks.

Answer 13

Hi ,

I'm Cardz10, I decided to close that account and used this one.

Anyway, we still can't use v5.1 sandbox wsdl for campaign management service. I read from the documentation (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa983138(MSADS.51).aspx) that we must obtain the appropriate wsdl for that service through Visual Studio or ServiceModel Metadata Utility Tool (Svcutil.exe) , unfortunately were using Linux and PHP in our application. Please let us know how we can get the wsdl if were using that OS and language.

Thanks.
