Please, I need to know the way to consume SOAP Web Service. I’ve seen some examples but I don’t understand how I can do it. From the client side, I need to save the information into database. Please, somebody answer. I need your help. Thanks and greetings. Jorge Mendoza ---

Contribute to datanoise/actionwebservice development by creating an account on GitHub. I don’t have any idea if it’s all still working in the latest version of Rails, and I don’t know if it’s being moved forward to Rails 3. ---
