i Sridhar,

In XI SOAP adapter we need two things:

SOAP URL: which is endpoint to the webserver.

SOAP action: describes particular method name we wanted to excute on that web applicaiton hosted on the webserver.

WSDL file has normally multiple operations(methods) , so we execute particular method by giving particular action name.

Action is not mandatory parameter i guess, this is in case , when wsdl is exposing only one method(action).

:Normally you can find SOAP Action element under element <SOAP:operation name = "XXX">

Hope this clears.

Cheers,

Hi Sridhar,

It is required to take care of the action to be performed once message is delivered to target side.

It can be delete, insert, etc.

In the WSDL provided, action element will be there.

You have to put that in the channel.
