[QUESTION] - Will be possible save "proxy" results based on Header SOAPAction.

[clx-jlmoreno]

The feature "imposter proxy", works like a charm but the savings is based in the URL assuming all are different.
in SOAP 1.1 the difference is based in SOAPAction header, not on url, usually the same for all actions.

What is the module to enhance to use the SOAPAction as file key for generating results. Can be done easily?

Hi @clx-jlmoreno, thanks for raising this.

To help us understand this scenario, please could you provide a short example, including any example file names the proxy mode should generate?

Example of usage of proxy for a SOAP 1.1 service proxy feature propossed

• imposter proxy http://www.example.com --soap
  where --soap is a new argument that should produce
  different result responses files based on the SOAPAction header received, for same URL.

Example of result saved response expected in proxy results.
www.example.com.http_action1_Response.xml -- the new result variant1 due to received SOAPAction=action1, saved once if not exists a response saved before
www.example.com.http_action2_Response.xml -- the new result variant2 due to received SOAPAction=action2, saved once if not exists a response saved before
www.example.com.http_action3_Response.xml --- the new result variant2 due to due to received SOAPAction=action3, saved once if not exists a response saved before
www.example.com.http_Response.xml --- the actual result, saved once if not exist a response before saved, managed by the url used in call only.

About a clear example, you have in your examples a clear example about the usage WSDL

at https://github.com/imposter-project/examples/blob/main/soap/single-wsdl1-soap11/petstore.wsdl

This WSDL defines 2 operations, and the "external" way (not inspecting the request payload, and required examine the WSDL definition of payloads)
is possible due to the SOAP client calls the same URL destination with a HTTP header SOAPAction="getPetById" or SOAPAction="getPetByName".

At same WSDL has defined that the URL associated to this WSDL is http://www.example.com/http/ (same url for 2 different resources).

I'm writing the modifications by myself @outofcoffee .... you are interested in the collaboration? I can submit a merge request?
