Principal Propagation SOAP-RFC

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a scenario where I have to propagate the user context from a mobile app to my ECC system.

MobileApp -> PI -> ECC

SOAP -> RFC

I have made principal propagation settings as per the blog:

http://scn.sap.com/community/pi-and-soa-middleware/blog/2007/01/16/principal-propagation-in-sap-xi

I have made the PI and ECC system as trusted systems.

So in my receiver RFC adapter why should I have to give basic authentication details to connect to the ECC system?

And there is no place in my receiver RFC adapter where I can specify that the system should use certificates.

Can anyone clarify the concept?

Thanks

Shakthi

Bit of along shot, seeing how old this thread is... Shakthi did you ever get this to work? i.e. principle propagation from a non SAP sender using SOAP adapter?

Thanks

Thanks for the responses.

At this point im not really looking to use pseudo principal propagation.

Hi Nabendu,

Outbound SOAP only supports SAP assertion ticket

I'm not sure if I understand this sentence. Does this mean that SOAP->RFC using principal propagation is not possible?

Can anyone give me the procedure to do a SOAP -> RFC principal propagation?

I'm on PI 7.3 I think it will work. Please check this link.

Hi Shakthi,

Just go to the Link (Configure the Sender) in your provided HELP document.

SOAP Sender

The SOAP client itself must be able to issue SAP assertion tickets. If the sender is an SAP program, an HTTP destination of type G can be used. If the sender is a SOAP (receiver) adapter, simple principal propagation can be used.

Have you tried Michal's psuedo principal propagation. If not , You might want to see this....

Hi Shakthi,

Are you using SAP assertion ticket? Outbound SOAP, I think only supports SAP assertion ticket.
