Hey akashbam 

 

Is there a reason you're trying to attach the file using code rather than the embedded functionality available in SoapUI?

 

Adding attachments to a SOAP message is pretty straightforward if you follow the instructions here -->  https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/requests/attachment/soap.html

 

Reply back if you're still struggling after trying the instructions

 

Cheers,

 

Rich

    Thanks richie for your response.

     

    Well, I want to attach a file with code(python). I am calling soap API and binding it with with web service(createAttachment) which accepts parameter as 

     
    import zeep
    client.service.createAttachment(sid=788139782, repositoryHandle='doc:1002', objectHandle='cr:1306591599', description='Test file', fileName='Test Data')
     
    I'm able to attach a file using soapUI but want to do the same using python.
     
    Thanks,
    Akash
