ClientID is for internal use by Authorize.Net and is not required.

Thank you so much @NexusSoftware...

What's the use of clientID? 

Shall I Send it has Null?? 

 

If I Sending as Null, Transaction process works good for sanbox Account, My Question is that, whether it affect Transaction in Production Account by sending clientID as Null??

Hi, 

But once refreshing SOAP web reference, api services listed with compiler error, that api service expecting string parameter of clientID ?

 

If you are requiring the SOAP web reference, send as null. The sandbox works the same as live.
