Magento Soap API call in Asp.net C#: Save Order

Click here to follow the steps to add the Magento reference to your asp.net C# application . I think, doing a order through Magento Api is a tricky  process. You need to follow the perfect flow to make an order into Magento store. For placing an order, you should have a Magento Store_ID, Api_USER_Name, Api_User_Key. Get your SessionId(32-bit string) by using Api_USER_Name and Api_User_key. Beacause, you have to use the SessionId in every api call.
First, you have to create the Shopping cart Id. If Cart Id is generated successfull, then you have to  add the Customer Info, Customer Address, Product, Shipping type and Payment type respectively. You should add the all details in the right flow then only order will be saved successfully. Follow the below code.

protected void SaveOrder()

{

string storeId = "YOUR_Store_Id"; 
               
string mlogin=null;                 

try
{
    mlogin = mservice.login("YOUR_API_UserName", "YOUR_API_UserKey");
   //Here mlogin means SessionID. We have to use it in every call.                    
 }
 catch (Exception ex)
 {
    // Handle the error if service is not availiable
   //Magento Save Order- Service login failed with response 
 }

                   

 int Shopping_Cart_ID = 0;
 try
   {
    // Creating Shopping CartID. Without CradID, you can't proceed next step.
    Shopping_Cart_ID = mservice.shoppingCartCreate(mlogin, storeId);

   }
 catch
   {
     // Handle the error if Shopping cart id not created   }

 if (Shopping_Cart_ID != 0) // Open if Shopping CartID is created
