EXOS v21 - SOAP/XML API

[Bryn_Sadler]

Hi, we've long been users of the XOS SOAP/XML API for provisioning tasks, but it seems to have changed in v21, since the CherryPy update of the web framework. The API endpoint used to be http(s):///xmlService, but this now just gives a 404. The WSDL and XSD files all seem to still be there. Can't find anything in the documentation, apart from the release notes acknowledge that the SOAP/XML functionality should still be there. Anyone know what the API endpoint is now?

For anyone following this thread, it was confirmed as a bug and a fix is scheduled for release with 22.3.

Yeah, I'll get one opened with TAC, thanks for confirming what I'm seeing.

It seems you are right, strange. I think opening a case for that would be best.

After some further testing, we may have stumbled on one of the strangest bugs I've come across. It seems that the XOS APIs aren't working for usernames that start with the letters h,i,j,k,q,r or s. Starting with any other letter is fine, but not those ones. Would appreciate if you could test this out on your switch Oscar and see if you are getting the same behaviour?
