The Structure of a SOAP Request
A SOAP request is an XML data structure generated by a SOAP toolkit that is sent to a web service. The
root element of this structure is named after the operation and contains the values for the operation's
parameters.
The root element of every request must contain:
• A value for AWSAccessKeyId to authenticate the request
For more information, see
Your AWS Identifiers (p. 54)
• An endpoint, which is the destination for the request
For more information, see
Request Terms That Remain the Same (p. 47)
• A request element, which contains the values for the operation's parameters
The API Reference describes all of the Product Advertising API operations and their parameters. The
Product Advertising API WSDL shows how the operation parameters appear in the XML request generated
by your toolkit.
SOAP Endpoints
SOAP requests use endpoints in their requests. The endpoint value varies by locale but there are only
two endpoints per locale. One endpoint in a locale is the secure version of the other endpoint. The following
table lists the endpoints to use in Product Advertising API SOAP requests.
