HTTP adapter - post to URL with parameters only

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a scenario from ABAP Proxy to XI to HTTP Adapter where the URL that is posted to is dynamic and has a series of parameters.

http://www.gateway1.graydon.co.uk/Gateway_core/HLGIServlet?&PUID=GGWDEMO1&PPWD=L1nx&GLANG=E&GFUNNO=A...

Therefore no payload is required in this scenario.

The HTTP Response will be a XML document into XI.

Does these seem feasible to use XI in this scenario ?

Kind regards

Colin.

Payload is ignored by default in destination

Check, whether the server requests an HTTP GET or HTTP POST.

An HTTP GET is not supported by the HTTP adapter.

Hi Stefan,

It is an HTTP Post.

I am comfortable with setting the dynamic URL.

The only thing is about the payload. What is done with this or how is it suppressed ?

Kind regards

Colin.

When you work with ABAP proxy, you need to create a message type with at least one element. If the web service does not ignore the payload, you have to delete this in a mapping step. A Java Mapping which does "nothing" (just implements the interface) should help.

Hi Stefan,

I have not utilised Java Mapping before. Can you expand on your idea please ?

Thanks

Kind regards

I believe it is possible.

You can use the dynamic configuration to generate a query string as you want. This blog gives you a ways to do it.
