How to ignore the version number in the URL which is used in login request?

Hi all,

I've started a discussion, https://developer.salesforce.com/forums/ForumsMain?id=906F00000005I5OIAU , but not got expected suggestion.

When I send a web request to login with URL, username and password, the URL should be like this, https://login.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/29.0 . There is a specified API version number.

I tried some URLs as following:

    1. https://login.salesforce.com/

    2. https://login.salesforce.com/services/Soap

    3. https://login.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u

All the three are invalid. The response messages are:

    1. HTML text for a login page of Salesforce.

    2. /u or /c should be specified.

    3. /u is an invalid version.

So, if I need to login without a specified version number, only for the login request, how could I change the URL text?

Thanks

    First thing for SOAP api you must specifiy version number.

    You can get version number without login.

    On your other thread I observed that you tried to get version number from https://login.salesforce.com/services/data, which is incorrect URL to get org info.

    You need to use your instance URL to get org Info like http://na1.salesforce.com/services/data/ or http://ap1.salesforce.com/services/data/

    Then after getting supported version number you can use that value to make login request.
