Do the 2007 SOAP endpoints support SOAP compression? RRS feed

    I have a client who uses the 2007 endpoints and would prefer to increase transmission speed by using SOAP compression. I 'Bing'ed but came up short of any verifiable proof that this was supported with the 2007 endpoints.  If he tries to send a zipped SOAP request to the 2007 endpoint, this is the response he receives:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body>
<soap:Fault>
<soap:Code><soap:Value>soap:Receiver</soap:Value></soap:Code>
<soap:Reason>
   <soap:Text xml:lang="en">Server was unable to process request. ---&gt; '&#x1F;', hexadecimal value 0x1F, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 1.</soap:Text>
</soap:Reason>
<soap:Detail />
</soap:Fault>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
    Is this explicitly not supported or do we need a different encoding to make this work?

    I don't think so, but you could write a WCF or some other listener app that you could put on the CRM server that could process the compression and that app could then act as a relay to the service as a workaround.

    Thank you for the feedback, Jamie.  I realized that I didn't mention that this was for CRM Online.  I suppose that we could create an Azure web role that would receive the request, decompress and pass along to CRM.

    There ya go.  You wouldn't be able to do anything on the CRM server obviously in this scenario, but you could do something through Azure that you would communicate with their that would act as the relay.
