Use the FaxStatus method to retrieve information about one or more submitted faxes with Perl.

The following Perl fax script demonstrates the FaxStatus method, displaying information for a number of submitted faxes:


#/**************** Settings begin **************/
my $username  = ''; # Enter your Interfax username here
my $password  = ''; # Enter your Interfax password here
my $lastTransactionID = '999999999';
my $maxItems = '1';
my $NS = 'http://www.interfax.cc';
#/**************** Settings end ****************/
                          

my $client = SOAP::Lite
    ->uri($NS)
    ->on_action( sub { join '/', $NS, $_[1] } ) 
    ->proxy('https://ws.interfax.net/dfs.asmx?WSDL');
    
my $result = $client
    ->call(SOAP::Data->name('FaxStatus')->attr({xmlns => $NS}) =>
            SOAP::Data->name('Username')->value($username)->type(''),
            SOAP::Data->name('Password')->value($password)->type(''),
            SOAP::Data->name('LastTransactionID')->value($lastTransactionID)->type(''),
            SOAP::Data->name('MaxItems')->value($maxItems)->type('')
    );


if ( $result->fault ) {
    print $result->faultstring . "\n";
} else {
    if( $result->valueof('//FaxStatusResponse/ResultCode') == 0 ) {
        my @fax_items = $result->valueof('//FaxStatusResult/*');

        print "Displaying information for " . @fax_items . " faxes." . "\n";
        for(my $i=0; $i valueof('//FaxStatusResponse/ResultCode') . "\n";
    }
}
