Passing Extra Parameter to asmx webservice

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I have an already existing webservice having 100s of functions being called from the application.

I need to add one more parameter (UserId) from application to webservice on each call.

I'll have to manually edit signatures of all the functions and calls from application to achieve it.

Is there a better / alternative way of sending my User Id to webservice on each call?

Enable session for the asmx web service and pass the user id value through Session.

Thanks, I created a session and tried to access in webservice with attribute [WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
I was not able to get the session value.

Please can you provide more details.

Solution 1

Add a key in your web config and set the value for it at runtime to provide value in each method

User Id is dynamic for each login. So cant have it in web.config file.

Solution 2

use a global variable that is accessible to every class, like the methods of ADO .NET that are accessible to every user

Please can you elaborate, global variable in the application to be uses in webservice you mean? I might have to modify all models then. Not all methods have the same parameter.

Solution 3

A general class must exists in a solution we can declare a public variable in such a class and assign value for user Id that can be used further for functionality implementation

If possible please provide your code
