Thank you for your feedback

If you are a winery user, please contact your connected software provider before contacting WineDirect so they can help determine the source of the problem.

If you are a software developer and encounter an error while trying to invoke a Web Service, viewing the SOAP request and response messages is useful because they often point to the problem.

If you are unsure of how to do this or are still unable to resolve the issue, please open a request for assistance from the WineDirect technical support team by emailing support@winedirect.com

Please note that they cannot troubleshoot custom code or perform any coding analysis. Specific questions about usage will be referred to our partnership team for follow-up.

To help us efficiently troubleshoot any issues, please include the following information in your email:

Name of the website
WSDL Service URL
Service name (endpoint)
Description of the problem and type of error

Please also include as much information as possible about how you are integrating:

Name and purpose of the application which is running the request
Is the application a 3rd-party off-the-shelf tool or a custom-developed integration?
Local Support: do you have an IT team with insight into the application code and logs?

If the problem seems to be with single requests:

Sample Request (XML)
Sample Response (XML) showing the problem
If the problem surfaces when running a lot of requests:
Time of attempt
Information about the volume attempted, the failure rate, and the speed the application is querying at (requests per second/minute)
