HTTP to HTTP scenario

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

There is a scenrio where the reciver interface is an HTTP interface. there is no sender agrreement used in this scenario.

On analysing the Interface Determination & Receiver determination object the conclusion is that the sender interface should be using HTTP adapter.

Now the concern is I would like to know how does this xml/txt file being sent get triggered From the sender system?

Just like how an IDoc gets triggered with the help of Process code & FM related to it..... similarly i would like to know the trigger mechanism for HTTP...

Regards,

Elizabeth.

Hi Elizabeth,

the HTTP mechanism like Idoc is push one. When you send a HTTP message to XI url it will be accepted and processed in XI.

The triggering from sender system can be done using <form> tag and action (pointing to XI url and interface). This action will be called when a submit button is pressed in the sender page.

You communicate with the plain HTTP inbound channel of the Integration Engine using an HTTP address.

Http address

http://<hostname:port>/<path>?<query-string>

To know how to create Query String refer [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/64db4daf9f30b4e10000000a11466f/content.htm]

Hi,

HTTP send is also known as HTTP post (form which post data to url). In this case url will be address of your XI.

You can relate this to Idoc and this is concern of sender application how to pass this data to XI url.
