Hello everyone.
I've been working on getting Cisco Call Manager's AXL working with Python
and have been running into an issue. I've spent hours beating my head
against it, so I figured it's time to request an outside opinion to see if
you can offer any insight.
My sanitized code is below:
from suds.client import Client
from suds.transport.https import HttpAuthenticated
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.CRITICAL)
logging.getLogger('suds.client').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
logging.getLogger('suds.transport').setLevel(logging.CRITICAL)
logging.getLogger('suds.xsd.schema').setLevel(logging.CRITICAL)
logging.getLogger('suds.wsdl').setLevel(logging.CRITICAL)
service = 'https://IPADDRESS:PORT/axl/'
wsdl = 'file:///PATH/TO/LOCAL/WSDL/AXLAPI.wsdl'
username = "username"
password = "password"
client = Client(wsdl, location = service, transport =
HttpAuthenticated(username = username, password = password))
name = "NAME_DP"
tags = ["regionName"]
print "<THIS IS A LISTDEVICEPOOL REQUEST>"
dp = client.factory.create('ns0:ListDevicePoolReq')dp.searchCriteria.name = name
dp.returnedTags = tags
result = client.service.listDevicePool(dp)
print "<THIS IS THE RESULT>"
print result
The issue is the soap output ends up being:
DEBUG:suds.client:headers = {'SOAPAction': u'"CUCM:DB ver=8.5 listDevicePool"',
'Content-Type': 'text/xml; charset=utf-8'}
ERROR:suds.client:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

As you can see, it's nesting everything inside the searchCriteria
attribute, which results in the returnedTags attribute being seen as part
of the searchCriteria. I'm having trouble discovering why, or determining
how to correct it. Is this a problem with how the wsdl is imported?
If you need to see the wsdl, or the xsd file that are imported, they are
available here:

Thank you in advance for your assistance!
