More information about the use of this cmdlet can be found here, or simply using 'Help Invoke-RestMethod' at a Powershell command prompt. Note that this cmdlet is only available in Powershell V3 and above.
SOAP web services can be consumed using PowerShell as well. Here is an example.
- Build a sample SOAP request and save it on a text file, called “soap.txt”.
- Save it on a temporary folder “C:\Temp”.
- Afterwards, open a PowerShell command prompt window and type this in:
$ws = "http://[your web service endpoint address]"Invoke-WebRequest $ws -Method Post -ContentType "text/xml" -InFile C:\Temp\soap.txt -OutFile c:\Temp\soapResults.txt
After execution, the resulting SOAP response is saved on the temporary folder under the name “soapResult.txt”.
