Description
The New-WebServiceProxy cmdlet lets you use a Web service in Windows PowerShell. The cmdlet connects to a Web service and creates a Web service proxy object in Windows PowerShell. You can use the proxy object to manage the Web service.
A Web service is an XML-based program that exchanges data over a network, particularly over the Internet. The Microsoft .NET Framework provides Web service proxy objects that represent the Web service as a .NET Framework object.
Parameters
-Class <string>
Specifies a name for the proxy class that the cmdlet creates for the Web service. The value of this parameter is used with the Namespace parameter to provide a fully qualified name for the class. The default value is generated from the URI.

-Credential <PSCredential>
Specifies a user account that has permission to perform this action. The default is the current user. This is an alternative to using the UseDefaultCredential parameter.
Type a user name, such as "User01" or "Domain01\User01". Or, enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by the Get-Credential cmdlet. If you type a user name, you will be prompted for a password.

-Namespace <string>
Specifies a namespace for the new class.
The value of this parameter is used with the value of the Class parameter to generate a fully qualified name for the class. The default value is Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.NewWebserviceProxy.AutogeneratedTypes plus a type that is generated from the URI.
You can set the value of the Namespace parameter so that you can access multiple Web services with the same name.

<CommonParameters>
This command supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, OutBuffer, OutVariable, WarningAction, and WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.
Inputs and Outputs
The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet. The return type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet returns.
|
Inputs |
None This cmdlet does not take input from the pipeline. |
|
Outputs |
A Web service proxy object The namespace and class of the object are determined by the parameters of the command. The default is generated from the input Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). |
Notes
New-WebServiceProxy uses the System.Net.WebClient class to load the specified Web service.
Example 1
| Copy Code |
|
|---|---|
C:\PS>$zip = New-WebServiceProxy -uri http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?WSDL |
|
Description
-----------
This command uses the New-WebServiceProxy command to create a .NET Framework proxy of the US Zip Web service in Windows PowerShell.
Example 2
| Copy Code |
|
|---|---|
C:\PS>$URI = "http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?WSDL" C:\PS> $zip = New-WebServiceProxy -uri $URI -namespace WebServiceProxy -class ZipClass |
|
Description
-----------
This command uses the New-WebServiceProxy cmdlet to create a .NET Framework proxy of the US Zip Web service.
The first command stores the URI of the Web service in the $URI variable.
The second command creates the Web service proxy. The command uses the URI parameter to specify the URI and the Namespace and Class parameters to specify the namespace and class of the object.
Example 3

|
Description
-----------
This command uses the Get-Member cmdlet to display the methods of the Web service proxy object in the $zip variable. We will use these methods in the following example.
Notice that the TypeName of the proxy object, WebServiceProxy, reflects the namespace and class names that were specified in the previous example.
Example 4
| Copy Code |
|
|---|---|
C:\PS>$zip.getinfobyzip(20500).table CITY : Washington STATE : DC ZIP : 20500 AREA_CODE : 202 TIME_ZONE : E |
|
Description
-----------
This command uses the Web service proxy stored in the Zip variable. The command uses the GetInfoByZip method of the proxy and its Table property.
