Webservice to soap or not

I have been asked to see if I can call a web service provided by our Document Management vendor. They have provided me with a simple C# sample, that I've been looking at to see if I can create something similar in RPG. I think I need to use SOAP(examples 16/17 in Scott's HTTPLIB) but I'm not sure. I don't see any reference to SOAP in the C# program, but if I look at the operations available in the WebService the always show a Soap 1.1 and Soap 1.2 request/response.

The idea is to search for a document and download it to a specific folder
I'm including a snippet of the C# code below.

Am I on the right path in looking at examples 16/17? Is there a better alternative?


Thanks Mike
