# Create a Python application that sets up a phone and an end user via Soap and AXL

Use Python and the Zeep library to create an AXL application to add a new phone, directory number (line), end user, and then associate the user with the phone and line.

## Objectives

    1- Set up Python with Zeep

    2- Create a SOAP client with Python and Zeep

    3- Set up a plugin for troubleshooting

    4- Use the client session to add a new line (directory number)

    5- Use the client session to add a new phone with this line

    6- Use the client session to add a new end-user

    7- Use the client session to associate the end user with the phone and the line

    8- Learn a Zeep quirk and how to handle it

    9- Review the complete script

## Prerequisites

    1-A client operating system like Windows, Mac or Linux

    2-A CUCM server with an administrator account.

     You can use your own, or you can reserve a test server via the DevNet sandbox

    3-The Cisco AXL Toolkit

    4-Python

    5-The Python package manager, or pip (The command pip may be pip3 on Mac and Linux)

    6-Install OpenSSL if not already installed

    7-Install the zeep library, which will install automatically all its dependencies

    8-On Linux, zeep will attempt to install lxml automatically,

     but lxml requires libxml2 and libxslt, so you will need to install the libxml2-dev and libxslt-dev packages.

## Installation

Use the package manager [pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/) to install zeep.

```bash

$ pip install zeep

```

```bash

$ sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev

```

```bash

$ sudo apt install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev

```
