Adding a Directory Object

The following code example adds an organizationalUnit object named DSMLSamples to the fabrikam.com LDAP directory.

<se:Envelope xmlns:se="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
	<se:Body xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:DSML:2:0:core">
		<batchRequest xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:DSML:2:0:core"
						xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
			<addRequest dn="ou=DSMLSamples,dc=fabrikam,dc=com”>
				<attr name="objectClass">
					<value>organizationalUnit</value>
				</attr>
			</addRequest>
		</batchRequest>
	</se:Body>
</se:Envelope>

The <se:Envelope> and <se:Body> SOAP elements enclose the DSML payload. The first element of the DSML payload, <batchRequest>, is the mandatory top-level element for all DSML V2 requests. The <addRequest> element creates the new object with a distinguished name of ou=DSMLSamples,dc=fabrikam,dc=com, with an attribute named objectClass that is set to a value of organizationalUnit.
