Why the header needs 4.0 record locator?

[montenegroraabe]

Hello! Could you help me?

I'm trying to accomplish the implementation of header 4.0 for my project of Amadeus.

However, I would like to understand why you need the record locator and where I could capture that information, because I couldn't find in the documentation.

In which moment record locator needed?
Explain more detailed what you can't do.

Hi!

What's happening: I'm trying to configure 4.0 header configuration for use in the project.

However, following the related step that link here, says it's necessary to use the record locator, but didn't understand why or where to get this information.

My code is equal to the referenced in the link.

Soap header 4 does not need record locator.
In provided link is only example of call to Amadeus web service PNR_Retrieve.

I guess you've just started to work with Amadeus. What you want to implement at all?

Exactly! Is my first attempt at setting and just been informed, by the support of Amadeus, which was necessary to setup header 4.0.

But I don't know where to start, I confess. I need to call airline services, as a search engine: search the itinerary, get rates, select the offer and booking. It takes the header? It's used for these searches, correct?

Start with learning of Amadeus session management: header implementation guide, sessions best practices.

Then I guess is the best to start with Amadeus WBS Implementation Guide which you can find at Fare_MasterPricerTravelBoardSearch documentation page on extranet.

Also you should know some things, so read this comment from creator of this repo: #240 (comment), and this may be helpful to you when implementing Search with TravelBoardSearch: #235 (comment)

@therealartz, thank you!!

I'll start this study to make the correct implementations.
