Downloading the vSphere Web Services SDK

The vSphere Web Services SDK, along with other VMware SDKs, is contained in the vSphere Management SDK.

You can download the vSphere Management SDK at https://developercenter.vmware.com, which links to the My VMware service. After you expand the vSphere Management SDK package, the Web Services SDK is in the subdirectory SDK/vsphere-ws. You also need the SDK/ssoclient subdirectory for client authentication.
