SOAP header

The SOAP header contains information about the service, the message, and the sender. It must include all of the following fields.

Note: The requirement for requests to contain the wsu:Timestamp, wsse:Username, and wsse:Password elements are defined in the WSDL by ws-policy.

If your web service toolkit does not support ws-policy, you must manually add these elements to the web service request.
