send in diffrrent languages
Assistant
To interact with the WSDL provided (https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl), you can use it in various programming languages to consume the SOAP API. Here's an example of how to send a SOAP request in different languages:

—

### **Python**
Using the `zeep` library:

from zeep import Client

# Create a client
wsdl_url = "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl"
client = Client(wsdl=wsdl_url)

# Example: Call a method (replace `method_name` with the actual method)
response = client.service.method_name(param1="value1", param2="value2")
print(response)

—

### **PHP**
Using the native `SoapClient`:

<?php
$wsdl = "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl";

try {
    $client = new SoapClient($wsdl);
    
    // Example: Call a method (replace 'methodName' with the actual method)
    $response = $client->methodName(['param1' => 'value1', 'param2' => 'value2']);
    print_r($response);
} catch (SoapFault $e) {
    echo "Error: {$e->getMessage()}";
}
?>

—

### **Java**
Using JAX-WS:

import javax.xml.ws.Service;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;

public class SoapClient {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        URL wsdlURL = new URL("https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl");
        QName qname = new QName("http://api.verticalresponse.com/", "ServiceName");

        Service service = Service.create(wsdlURL, qname);
        MyWebService port = service.getPort(MyWebService.class);

        // Call a method (replace 'methodName' with the actual method)
        String response = port.methodName("value1", "value2");
        System.out.println(response);
    }
}

—

### **C#**
Using `System.ServiceModel`:

using System;
using System.ServiceModel;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        var binding = new BasicHttpBinding();
        var endpoint = new EndpointAddress("https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl");
        var client = new MySoapServiceClient(binding, endpoint);

        // Example: Call a method (replace 'MethodName' with actual method)
        var response = client.MethodName("value1", "value2");
        Console.WriteLine(response);
    }
}

—

### **Ruby**
Using the `savon` gem:

require 'savon'

client = Savon.client(wsdl: "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl")

# Call a method (replace :method_name with the actual method)
response = client.call(:method_name, message: { param1: "value1", param2: "value2" })
puts response.body

—

### **JavaScript**
Using Node.js with the `strong-soap` package:

const soap = require('strong-soap').soap;

const wsdlUrl = "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl";
soap.createClient(wsdlUrl, function(err, client) {
    if (err) {
        console.error(err);
        return;
    }
    
    // Call a method (replace 'methodName' with the actual method)
    client.methodName({ param1: "value1", param2: "value2" }, function(err, result) {
        if (err) console.error(err);
        else console.log(result);
    });
});

Ensure you replace placeholders like `methodName`, `param1`, and `value1` with the actual methods and parameters specific to the API. You may need to refer to the API's documentation for the correct method names and input parameters.

addListMember add to different language like in de to de and en to en
Assistant
If you are using the `addListMember` method from the VerticalResponse API and need to ensure the member is added to a list corresponding to their language (e.g., German users to a German list and English users to an English list), you can achieve this by:

1. Mapping the user’s language preference to the appropriate list.
2. Sending the data dynamically based on the language.

Here’s how you can implement this logic in different languages:

—

### **Python**

from zeep import Client

# WSDL URL
wsdl_url = "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl"
client = Client(wsdl=wsdl_url)

# Define the mapping for language to list ID
language_list_map = {
    "en": "ENGLISH_LIST_ID",
    "de": "GERMAN_LIST_ID"
}

def add_list_member(language, email, name):
    list_id = language_list_map.get(language, "DEFAULT_LIST_ID")
    
    response = client.service.addListMember(
        listID=list_id,
        email=email,
        name=name
    )
    print(response)

# Example usage
add_list_member("en", "user@example.com", "John Doe")
add_list_member("de", "user@germanexample.com", "Hans Müller")

—

### **PHP**

<?php
$wsdl = "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl";

try {
    $client = new SoapClient($wsdl);

    // Language to list ID mapping
    $language_list_map = [
        "en" => "ENGLISH_LIST_ID",
        "de" => "GERMAN_LIST_ID"
    ];

    function add_list_member($language, $email, $name) {
        global $client, $language_list_map;
        $list_id = isset($language_list_map[$language]) ? $language_list_map[$language] : "DEFAULT_LIST_ID";

        $response = $client->addListMember([
            'listID' => $list_id,
            'email'  => $email,
            'name'   => $name
        ]);

        print_r($response);
    }

    // Example usage
    add_list_member("en", "user@example.com", "John Doe");
    add_list_member("de", "user@germanexample.com", "Hans Müller");

} catch (SoapFault $e) {
    echo "Error: {$e->getMessage()}";
}
?>

        Service service = Service.create(wsdlURL, qname);
        MyWebService port = service.getPort(MyWebService.class);

        // Language to list ID mapping
        Map<String, String> languageListMap = new HashMap<>();
        languageListMap.put("en", "ENGLISH_LIST_ID");
        languageListMap.put("de", "GERMAN_LIST_ID");

        // Function to add member
        String language = "de"; // Change dynamically
        String listID = languageListMap.getOrDefault(language, "DEFAULT_LIST_ID");

In each implementation:
– Replace `"ENGLISH_LIST_ID"` and `"GERMAN_LIST_ID"` with actual IDs of the lists.
– Make sure the SOAP API method names and parameters match those specified in the WSDL.

This approach dynamically assigns users to the appropriate language-specific list.

User
in php add in OptIn English
Assistant
To add an English user with `OptIn` in the `addListMember` method using PHP, you'll need to set the `OptIn` parameter appropriately when calling the method. Here's how you can implement this:

—

### PHP Code Example for Adding an English User with `OptIn`

<?php
$wsdl = "https://api.verticalresponse.com/wsdl/1.0/VRAPI.wsdl";

try {
    // Initialize the SOAP client
    $client = new SoapClient($wsdl);

    // Language-specific list ID
    $language_list_map = [
        "en" => "ENGLISH_LIST_ID",
        "de" => "GERMAN_LIST_ID"
    ];

    // Function to add a member to the list with OptIn
    function add_list_member_with_optin($language, $email, $name, $opt_in = true) {
        global $client, $language_list_map;

        // Get the correct list ID based on language
        $list_id = isset($language_list_map[$language]) ? $language_list_map[$language] : "DEFAULT_LIST_ID";

        // Prepare the payload
        $payload = [
            'listID' => $list_id,
            'email'  => $email,
            'name'   => $name,
            'OptIn'  => $opt_in  // Set the OptIn parameter
        ];

        // Call the addListMember method
        $response = $client->addListMember($payload);
        print_r($response);
    }

    // Example usage: Adding an English user
    add_list_member_with_optin("en", "user@example.com", "John Doe", true);

} catch (SoapFault $e) {
    echo "Error: {$e->getMessage()}";
}
?>

### Explanation of the Code
1. **SOAP Initialization**:
– The `SoapClient` is initialized with the WSDL URL.

2. **Language Mapping**:
– A `$language_list_map` array maps each language code (e.g., `en`, `de`) to the corresponding list ID.

3. **`OptIn` Parameter**:
– The `OptIn` parameter is set to `true` to ensure the user agrees to be added to the list.

4. **Dynamic List Selection**:
– Based on the language provided, the function selects the correct list ID.

5. **Payload**:
– The `listID`, `email`, `name`, and `OptIn` parameters are included in the payload sent to the `addListMember` method.

6. **Error Handling**:
– `SoapFault` exceptions are caught and printed for debugging purposes.

—

### Sample Output
If successful, the response from the `addListMember` method will be printed:

Array
(
    [Success] => true
    [MemberID] => 12345
)

If there's an error, it will display something like:

Error: Invalid list ID or other SOAP fault message

Replace `"ENGLISH_LIST_ID"` with the actual English list ID from your VerticalResponse account.
