# Connectivity: SOAP

### Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

**SOAP connectivity** can be used with web services that utilize SOAP APIs.

If the system already has an API, Skyone Studio can use it directly—adding **rate limiting** and **security controls** to make integration with other products easier. When using SOAP, Skyone Studio works with **XML format**, supporting the **POST method**, which is the only HTTP request method accepted by the SOAP protocol.

All accounts created under this connectivity type will use the **endpoint of a SOAP API**, with data typically provided through a **WSDL file**—an XML format that describes how to call a web service. If the API doesn't have a WSDL file, you’ll need to manually build the requests without relying on tools like SOAP UI.

Once you’ve added at least one operation to your module, you won’t be able to change the selected **connectivity type** unless you delete all the created operations first.

#### How to connect an account <a href="#how-to-connect-an-account" id="how-to-connect-an-account"></a>

In the case of the SOAP connectivity type, no authentication is required.

To add a connected account, click on "**Connected account"** and then "**Add connected account"**.

The following modal will then appear:

Fill in the details:

1. **Terminal** (optional): if you have a terminal set up, select it so that the connection is made through the corresponding "**Agent**";
2. **Account name**: name of the registered account;
3. **Host**: IP of the database host;
4. **Port**: port number

After filling in the details, click on "**Create account"**.

That's it! Your connected account has been created and can be used by other modules and flows, appearing among the configured account options in both cases.

Finally, click on "**Save changes"** to configure your module settings.

Important: Once you have saved your changes, you will no longer be able to change the Connectivity type.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.skyone.cloud/english/skyone-studio/modules/settings-and-operations/module-settings/connectivity-soap.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
