Hi Guys I am currently doing this:
IP client(Python) --> send SOAPXML request --> IP Server (Python) SOAP request: <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:req="http:/ /request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com" xmlns:xsd="http://request.messagepush.interfaces .comviva.com/xsd"> <xsd:text>test\ntest\ntest<{[£€&%]}></xsd:text> From my IP Client: s.send(data_send.encode('utf-8')) From my IPServer: xml_decoded = data.decode('utf-8') xml_root = ET.ElementTree(ET.fromstring(xml_decoded)).getroot() for elem in xml_root.getiterator(): if('{http://request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com/xsd}shortCode'==elem.tag): shortCode = (elem.text).rstrip() if('{http://request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com/xsd}text'==elem.tag): send_text = (elem.text).rstrip() if('{http://request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com/xsd}item'==elem.tag): subscribers = (elem.text).rstrip() result_sms = send_sms(subscribers,shortCode,send_text) It is working fine but I am having problems with a couple of special characters, & and < The problem: <xsd:text>test\ntest\ntest<{[£€&%]}></xsd:text> It seems as if I send this: <> and the character & then I have a problem. I need to use utf-8 as I need to make sure I get 160 characters in one SMS.
