You can send outbound SOAP requests from any
place in the ServiceNow AI Platform where
scripting is allowed.
For detailed API information about the server-side SOAPMessageV2 and SOAPResponseV2 APIs,
see the API documentation on [developer.servicenow.com](https://developer.servicenow.com/app.do#!/home). For additional tips and best
practices, see the [Outbound REST Web Services RESTMessageV2 and SOAPMessageV2
execute() vs executeAsync() Best Practices \[KB0694711\]](https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0694711) article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.
