WSDL to PHP with Basic Auth

Question

I need to build php classes from a WSDL that is behind basic auth.

It has tons of namespaces so it looks burdensome to do this by hand.

I have tried a few tools but looks like the auth session isn't presistent.

Answer 1

$options = array(
     'login' => $username,
     'password' => $password,
);
$client = new SoapClient($wsdl, $options);

Yes, it works! I tried in a solution that I was building and it connects to my customer WS which is with HTTP Basic Auth.

Answer 2

HTTP Auth works with SOAP Client, however you cannot access password protected WSDL files
