I am trying to fetch via Magento API with SOAP v2 service through WSDL in midomain.com/index.php/api/v2_soap/?wsdl but I don't know the exact operation to fetch the data

I am trying to get "Featured Products" with catalogProductGetSpecialPrice that it is wrong

Edit: I am trying too thinking as featured products are only a product attibute, I can search all the products with attribute "featured_product", so using the attribute_id for the feature_product it could be fetched via product_attribute.list operation

I ask to experienced magento developers in #magento IRC channel and for fetch 'featured products' and determine what products are featured they said that it is needed know what makes a product as "featured" for search for it and it depends mostly in which is code as functionality of the theme.

In most themes the 'featured products' are just a specific category. So, I just need know the specific ID category

Most themes that offer a featured product block or slider allow you to determine the category in the widget/cms block.

Pulling the category_id it is possible fetch all featured products. For that the operation I use catalogCategoryInfo (SOAP V2) fetching all the data.
