General structure

Requests are sent in SOAP format as shown below. For brevity the rest of the documentation omits the SOAP wrapper and only displays the Alea:Document node and children.

Request

  <Alea:Request RequestID="001" Class="ClassType" Method="MethodType">
  ...
  </Alea:Request>
</Alea:Document>

This table describes the parameters:

RequestID Optional, identifies one special request
ClassType Database, Cube, Dimension, Connection
