Does anyone know if CRM exposes the WSDL for the SOAP operations? I'm trying
to understand what the purpose is of using SOAP for client/server access if
I am restricted to using the Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.dll. I would like to access
the CRM SDK functionality from other platforms if possible, such as Java.

SOAP Version and Recommended Way to Interact with Microsoft CRM




Resolution



It is recommended to use the latest version of SOAP.



The Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.dll is the easiest approach to
integrating into the MSCRM platform. We strongly recommend referencing the
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.dll instead of adding web references. However, if there
is an valid business reason for using web references, the WSDL files are
exposed in the following location for each of the platform base classes:



inetpub\wwwroot\mscrmservices\ (i.e. CRMAccountSDL.srf)



Tip - If problems are encountered when using web references, add
the Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.dll to the solution and test out the same method
with that. If the problem still exists when using the .dll, contact
Microsoft Business Solutions CRM SDK Support.

Sure. I probably won't need to for a while. But later on today I am going to
try to "prove it" by using SOAP from .NET.

Another reason I wanted the WSDL spec is so that I can keep my SQL database
that takes internet orders in sync with the CRM database through supported
methods. I'm gonna use XSL to transform the customers into SOAP messages and
pass them up to CRM.
