Hi All

SOAP is a new welcome addition to DF in Services. Indeed it brilliantly set up the API docs with just one URL. However my SOAP supplier is requesting I send an authentication token , which I have, in the header. The exact rather skimpy instructions are as follows:

“This token shall be passed as a SOAP Header value. The service will reject all requests with no token or an incorrect token code.”

Anyone know what they mean and how to do it?
