What is SOAP connection in Magento?
SOAP is an XML-based messaging protocol.
Communication with SOAP
boils down to a SOAP Server and a SOAP Client. SOAP Server is used to
answer client requests sent by the SOAP Client. SOAP Client sends
request to SOAP Server and receives response from Magento through API
call after an authenticated SOAP connection.
Magento offers a
SOAP server that allows us to communicate with Magento on a level that
allows us to integrate Magento into inkXE tool.
