[Fedora-suds-list] Issue using suds with Sharepoint (CopyIntoItems)

[Matthew Ashton]

Perhaps Suds isn't recognizing the elements in the request are a list?
The only items you successfully put in the request are Elements that call
setText to put a string in the field, but the other Elements you try to
append the string to a list...

Formally I've used suds to handle it's own definitions of soap objects and
use them in a call, like after getting the client ->
theCopyIntoRequest = client.factory.create("ns1:CopyIntoRequest") #which is
the SOAP definition of the request, Suds generates metadata (and other
stuff) to properly handle this (I don't know what object is needed here)

theCopyIntoRequest.DestinationUrls.append('url1') #etc (assuming this is
correct)

I don't know about your SOAP objects but I'd think you'd have an easier
time going through Suds to interface with the wsdl
