SOAP to File scenario

Former Member

Hello,

I am newbie in PI and would like to implement a scenario where a business system requests information through PI using Http. PI sends the request in form of a file to the backend who replies by sending a response file back to PI. PI transforms the file and send the information back to the business system over Http.

I have created:  2 synchronous service interfaces (outbound and inbound) containing respectively. 1 request and 1 response message type.

2 message mappings (request and response), and on operation mapping.

Now, I'am gettng confused when creating the communication channels and could find similar scenario on the web.

Please help me with some procedure, tips or doc for the design and config?

Thanks!

Hi,

you need a Business Process here, if your PI system has an ABAP stack, you can use ccBPM.

http sender -> BP (synchronous outbound if, synchronous abstract if, 2 asynchr abstr if, mapping outside BPM)

BP->File (use of asynchr abstr if, asynchr inbound if, may be mapping, file receiver channel)

File->BP (use of other asynchr abstr if, asynchr outbound if, may be mapping, file sender channel)

BP->http sender (the response closing the bridge)

Hi,

Since File Adapter is Asynchronous, you can try BPM (Syn- Asy Bridge).

or

Try File to RFC with out using BPM

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/File-RFC-File%28Without+BPM%29

or

You can try RFC to Soap scenario.
