SOAP Operation Envelope (Request)

When you create a SOAP Web Service data service, the XML of the operation envelope template that you select is displayed as the Envelope parameter. Most operation envelope templates include some elements for which you must replace the value with a value appropriate to your environment. If this operation envelope template has such elements, they are described here.

The getVersion operation envelope template contains no elements for which you must specify values.
