I'm having some trouble making sense of the very vague access protocol from the "full documentation" provided for download after signing up for my API key. I have my web application set to go but I'm wondering what the heck is the URL I need to point it towards to initiate this whole process? I'm assuming it is relative toward my registered domain? ANY clue would be appreciated thanks.

Basically, these are the steps for the first time:

1. Issue a GetUserKeyRequest, this returns a LoginUrl in the response
2. Go to the LoginUrl, fill out the site information and submit to authorize the API for that site
3. Issue a GetUserTokenRequest, and add the returned token into the SecurityCredentials of subsequent requests

Once you have done that, you should be able to proceed

As far as the Url to access, I'm not sure if you meant the soap endpoint or the login url, but the soap endpoint is http://ecomapi.networksolutions.com/soapservice.asmx?wsdl, and the login url varies and is returned in the GetUserKeyResponse.

I can't get past the first step... I just get the following error:

<detail/>
</soap:Fault>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>


here is the request I'm sending:

The XXXXXXXX are where I'm inputing the Certificate number I received after registering for the API. I know I'm doing some stuff wrong but for the life of me can't troubleshoot it.

The type of data for the version element is "decimal", so it needs to be non-empty and a decimal. Optionally you can also just not include the version if you aren't specifying one. So change your request to one of the following, which both work:
CODE
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:networksolutions:apis">
<soapenv:Header>
<urn:SecurityCredential>
<urn:Application>No Boundaries Inc. Ecom API</urn:Application>
<urn:Certificate>XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX</urn:Certificate>
<urn:UserToken></urn:UserToken>
</urn:SecurityCredential>
</soapenv:Header>
<soapenv:Body>
<urn:GetUserKeyRequest>
<urn:RequestId></urn:RequestId>
<urn:Version>1</urn:Version>
<urn:UserKey>
<urn:LoginUrl></urn:LoginUrl>
<urn:UserKey></urn:UserKey>
<urn:SuccessUrl></urn:SuccessUrl>
<urn:FailureUrl></urn:FailureUrl>
</urn:UserKey>
</urn:GetUserKeyRequest>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

CODE
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:networksolutions:apis">
<soapenv:Header>
<urn:SecurityCredential>
<urn:Application>No Boundaries Inc. Ecom API</urn:Application>
<urn:Certificate>XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX</urn:Certificate>
<urn:UserToken></urn:UserToken>
</urn:SecurityCredential>
</soapenv:Header>
<soapenv:Body>
<urn:GetUserKeyRequest>
<urn:RequestId></urn:RequestId>
<urn:UserKey>
<urn:LoginUrl></urn:LoginUrl>
<urn:UserKey></urn:UserKey>
<urn:SuccessUrl></urn:SuccessUrl>
<urn:FailureUrl></urn:FailureUrl>
</urn:UserKey>
</urn:GetUserKeyRequest>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>



I took out all the soapui optional commenting to save space, but you can leave it in it doesn't matter. In your soapui preferences you might want to enable the setting "Type comment" under WSDL settings, it will show you the data type the element needs to be in the request comments. I'd also recommend turning on the setting "Abort invalid requests" under Editor Settings. With that turned on, this message would have been displayed when you attempted to submit the request: "line 17: Invalid decimal value: expected at least one digit", line 17 being the version element. These messages can be pretty helpful. I'm assuming you are using soapUI because the commenting looks like it, you can ignore that if you aren't.
