# SOAP services (deprecated)

LL::NG portal provide a SOAP server that can be enable to give configuration and/or session. These features can be enabled using the manager.

## Portal SOAP services

- Read-only functions (index.pl/sessions or index.pl/adminSessions paths):
  - getCookies(user,password): authentication system. Returns cookie(s) name and values
  - getAttributes(cookieValue): get elements stored in session
  - isAuthorizedURI(cookieValue,url): check if user is granted to access to the function
  - getMenuApplications(cookieValue): return a list of authorizated applications (based on menu calculation)
- Read/Write functions (index.pl/adminSessions paths):
  - setAttributes(cookieValue,hashtable): update a session
  - newSession: create a session (return attributes)
  - deleteSession: delete a session
  - get_key_from_all_sessions: list all sessions and return asked keys
- Notification send function (index.pl/notification):
  - newNotification(xmlString): insert a notification for a user (see Notifications system for more)
- Notification delete function:
  - deleteNotification: delete notification(s) for a user (see Notifications system for more)

When you use SOAP sessions backend, it is recommended to use read-only URL (/index.fcgi/sessions). Write session path is needed only if you use a remote session explorer or a remote portal

You can enable WSDL server in the manager. It will deliver WSDL file (/portal.wsdl).
