To communicate with the FEWS PI SOAP Web Service, the SOAP protocol is used. This means all HTTP requests have to be using the POST method.
The soap API can be queried using the WSDL using the following URL http://localhost:8080/FewsWebServices/fewspiservice?wsdl. Using a tool like SoapUI: https://www.soapui.org/downloads/soapui.html. With this tool the WSDL can be imported and sample SOAP requests can be generated.
