Getting started with IDS Web Services

The WSDL for testing is at
http://jbtest2.internetdispatcher.org:8080/ids-beans/IDSWSRPC?wsdl

The WSDL for the Australian server is at
http://oz.internetdispatcher.org:8080/ids-beans/IDSWSRPC?wsdl

AuthToken

This is the first parameter to all web service calls.
It's made up of 3 fields, separated by '-'.
<accountId>-<userId>-<password>

as in
EXAccountID-EXUserID-EXPassword

Note The userId must be for an enabled user.

Status Values

The status reflects the stage that the trip is at within IDS.

    public static final int ACTIVE = 2;
    public static final int DISPATCHED = 3;
    public static final int PICKED_UP = 4;
    public static final int DELIVERED = 5;
    public static final int VERIFIED = 6;
    public static final int POSTED = 7;
    public static final int DELETED = 8;

Adding a New Trip

Create the remoteTripDetailed object.

Populate the fields, following the guidelines above.

Call web service to save it.

Use

     public RemoteTripDetailed updateTripDetailedQuick(
			  String authToken,
			  RemoteTripDetailed trip,
			  boolean broadcastUpdateMessage)

Important Set broadcastUpdateMessage to true

If the function succeeds, a RemoteTripDetailed object will be returned, otherwise null.
Important Use this method only when adding a new trip to IDS. If updating, use the method described below.

Finding Trips

Single Trips

To find a single trip, you need the tripId.
Use this function:

     public RemoteTripDetailed findTripDetailed(
			  String authToken,
			  String tripId)

If the trip exists, a RemoteTripDetailed object will be returned, otherwise null.

Multiple Trips

Note: Java Dates map to DateTime objects in C#.

To find trips for all accounts that match the parameters, use

     public RemoteTripDetailed[] findTripsDetailedByDate(
			String authToken,
			Date from,
			Date to,
			int lowerStatus,
			int upperStatus)

To find trips for 1 account that match the parameters, use

     public RemoteTripDetailed[] findTripsDetailedByDateForAccount(
			String authToken,
			String accountId,
			Date from,
			Date to,
			int lowerStatus,
			int upperStatus)

If any trips exist, an array of RemoteTripDetailed objects will be returned.

Updating a Trip

  1. First load the trip, as above.
  2. Modify the RemoteTripDetailed object.
  3. Save the modified trip.

Use this to save it (as above in Adding a New Trip):

     public RemoteTripDetailed updateTripDetailedQuick(
			  String authToken,
			  RemoteTripDetailed trip,
			  boolean broadcastUpdateMessage)

Important Set broadcastUpdateMessage to true.

Finding Updated Trips

This will return an array of trips that have been modified in the last sinceSeconds that are within the range of the lowStatus and upperStatus (inclusive).

     public RemoteTripDetailed[] findTripsDetailedUpdatedSince(
		  	String authToken,
			String zones,
			String allKey,
			int lowStatus,
			int upperStatus,
			long sinceSeconds)

Important Set 'zones' and 'allKey' to "ALL"
