               </ns1:CampaignIds>
               <ns1:MediaIds>
                  <arr:int>65335</arr:int>
                  <arr:int>65337</arr:int>
               </ns1:MediaIds>
               <ns1:TrackingPointFilterId>18077</ns1:TrackingPointFilterId>
            </ns1:DataFilters>
         </ns1:ReportSchedule>
      </ns1:CreateReportScheduleData>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

This is an example of the soap request, anyone have some ideia how i can set the Ticket tag with CURL?

Thanks a lot!

You could use a regular expression, or :

<?php

$xml = '<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/.........';

list($part1, $part2) = explode("<ns:Ticket>", $xml);

list($ticket, $part3) = explode("</ns:Ticket>", $part2);

$newTicket = "<ns:Ticket>blablabla</ns:Ticket>"; // <== your ticket here

$xml = $part1 . $newTicket . $part3;

echo $xml;

?>
