Newbie question: help understand XML request script example
Hello,
I found this example on page 42 of the server side suitescript manual:
Request an XML Document
The following code sample shows how to request an XML document from a server and also
include a header:
var a = new Array();
a['User-Agent-x'] = 'SuiteScript-Call';
var response = nlapiRequestURL( 'https://webservices.netsuite.com/wsdl/v1_2_0/
netsuite.wsdl', null, a );
var body = response.getBody();
var headers = response.getAllHeaders();
What are the placeholder values in the example and what would they represent?
Is 'User-Agent-x' a login?
Is 'SuiteScript-Call' a script or a URL?
Is the webservices WSDL necessary to define the transaction or is this a placeholder for the URL being requested?
