Make a soap request in Lithium

Hi Adam,

I try to use endpoints to make http.client request by following your recommendation KB:

1. https://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/developers-knowledge-base/http-client-FreeMarker-Context-Object/ta-p/80614

2. https://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/developers-knowledge-base/http-client-response-FreeMarker-context-object/ta-p/80622

The first thing i did , it is to add the allow domain setting in System.  (Please see the attachment: http_client_setting) . I create a really simple http client request in my endpoints. The code are:

<#assign response=http.client.request("http://tomtom-uk--tst.tomtom.com/cgi-bin/tomtom_uk.cfg/services/soap?wsdl").get().content />

<#if response.hasError>
     ${response.error.message}
</#if>
${response}

The response either complian java.lang.exception error message or empty; it depends on how I set the view content type. If I set the view content type to text/xml, i will get java.lang.exception error message.

error>

Error on line 1, column 1 in demo_context_object.ftl
http.client.request("http://tomtom-uk--tst.tomtom.com/cgi-bin/tomtom_uk.cfg/services/soap?wsdl").get().content is undefined.
It cannot be assigned to response
The problematic instruction:
----------
==> assignment: response=http.client.request("http://tomtom-uk--tst.tomtom.com/cgi-bin/tomtom_uk.cfg/services/soap?wsdl").get().content [on line 1, column 1 in demo_context_object.ftl]
----------

Java backtrace for programmers:
----------

 If the view/content type is html, i will get empty return.

I am wondering it must be something I make it wrong, because I can get response if I paste the url (http://tomtom-uk--tst.tomtom.com/cgi-bin/tomtom_uk.cfg/services/soap?wsdl) in my browser.

Can you please advices here? thank you
