How difficult or easy it is?

Appreciate your responses.

The engineering team did not build SOAP based web services into AEM. If you are familiar with LiveCycle ES, it did support SOAP end points so a client (that supports SOAP) like a C# client could invoke it. 

As far a RESTful endpont - all you need to do is build a custom sling servlet. We have a lot of articles on how to build Sling Servlets.

AEM does not support SOAP based end points. You can write servlets that let outside clients invoke via Restful requests.

Hi all,

1. Do we have an Adobe official tutorial on this subject?

2. Any idea of why exposing SOAP based web services are ruled out?

Anything to do with the architecture or so?

Appreciate your replies.

Thanks,

Rama.
