Go with XML instead of SOAP for eBay’s File Transfer API

The developer sandbox may work with the SOAP12 API, but for some reason, production chokes. I find this whole API utterly suboptimal.

Here’s the proper CF formatting:

and your XML request should look like:

#arguments.jobid#
#arguments.filerefid#
zip

#tobase64(Local.filebin)#

Note that the local.filebin is loaded with cffile and the readBinary action.
Sigh.
