How to write login() method code in Apex?
Hi,
I am trying to implement initial Helloworld webservice in Salesforce.
But i got error:
"Web service callout failed: WebService returned a SOAP Fault: INVALID_SESSION_ID: Invalid Session ID found in SessionHeader: Illegal Session faultcode=sf:INVALID_SESSION_ID faultactor="
After that i have tried to write login() method for getting valid session id so i took reference of sample java method
Sample Code—Java
privateboolean login()
{
LoginResult loginResult = null;
SoapBindingStubbinding = null;
try {
// Createbinding object
binding = (SoapBindingStub) new SforceServiceLocator().getSoap(); // login
loginResult =binding.login("username", "password");
}
catch (Exception ex){
System.out.println("An unexpected errorhas occurred." + ex.getMessage());
return false;
}System.out.println("Login was successful.");
// Resetthe SOAP endpoint to the returned server URL
binding._setProperty(Stub.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY, loginResult.getServerUrl());
// Createa new session header object // add the session ID returned from thelogin
_SessionHeader sh = new _SessionHeader(); sh.setSessionId(loginResult.getSessionId());
// Set the sessionheader for subsequent call authentication
binding.setHeader(new SforceServiceLocator().getServiceName().getNamespaceURI(),
"SessionHeader",sh);
//get user info
try {
GetUserInfoResultuserInfo = binding.getUserInfo(); }
catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println("Anunexpected error has occurred." + ex.getMessage()); returnfalse;
}return true;
}
But when i tried to implement this same code in Apex i got many error bcoz it is in java .
I just want to know hoe can we write login method in Apex so tat could get valid session id to implement my webservice.

The answer here lies with what you are actually trying to do. If you want to generate a sessionId then use UserInfo.getSessionId() .
If you want to call out to a webservice from Apex that is synchronous so instead of sending a sessionid why not just return the information/instructions in the callout response?
What are you trying to accomplish?
Hi,
I have a similar kind of problem.
In Salesforce, I have one Session ID and Server URL. I need to write one web service, which will take the Session Id and Server URL as its input and will return the User ID (associated to the Session Id provided).
Please provide your idea on this.
Thanks in Advance,
